Hi all,

The YUM updates for CentOS 8.3 have been published today by upstream.

This time around it's fairly "fat" with around 560-580 updated RPMs for
a typical 5210R install. Including goodies such as an updated glibc,
updated bind, updated Apache and lots of other stuff that often has the
potential to rock the boat a little.

After installing the updates I noticed that the updated Apache had
brought back the HTTP/2 support and had enabled it by default. Which
then causes Apache to segfault on all requests.

To fix that an updated "swatch" has been published to the BlueOnyx 5210R
YUM repository, which will automatically check if the HTTP/2 module is
loaded via /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-h2.conf and if so, it'll comment
that line out automatically and will restart Apache.

As far as I can tell this was the only issue caused by these updates.

An updated ISO image to directly install a CentOS 8.3 based 5210R will
be provided later today.
