Rocky Linux 10, based on RHEL 10, released

Following the release of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 and the AlmaLinux 10, yet another Red Hat-based Linux derivative distro, Rocky Linux, has just released a new version that is compatible with the tenth major version of RHEL. This sets a huge milestone for just another community version of the RHEL distribution. You can download this version of Rocky Linux here.

Download now

Rocky Linux 10, just like RHEL 10, requires the x86_64-v3 processor in order to run on modern computers. This is unlike AlmaLinux 10 that needed at least the x86_64-v2 processor. Also, Rocky Linux 10 no longer ships the 32-bit packages, which means that you will no longer to run 32-bit applications.

For the desktop environment, this version of Rocky Linux now uses the Wayland server exclusively instead of the legacy X11 protocol. However, some of the applications that have not yet been ported to Wayland can now run using the Xwayland protocol.

This version of Rocky Linux now supports the RISC-V architecture for users with such processor architecture. This is to make sure that computers that use a RISC-V processor be able to use Rocky Linux for the first time, expanding hardware support to the broader audience.

The following architectures are supported:

  • 64-bit AMD/Intel x86-64-v3 (x86_64)
  • 64-bit RISC-V (riscv64)
  • 64-bit ARMv8.0-A (aarch64)
  • IBM POWER, little endian (ppc64le)
  • IBM z (s390x)

The following common packages have been updated:

  • Dynamic programming languages, web, and database servers
    • PHP 8.3
    • Python 3.12
    • nginx 1.26
    • PostgreSQL 16.8
    • MySQL 8.4
    • Valkey 8.0
    • MariaDB 10.11
  • Performance tools and debuggers
    • GDB 14.2
    • Valgrind 3.23.0
    • SystemTap 5.1
    • Dyninst 12.3.0
    • elfutils 0.192
    • libabigail 2.6
  • Performance monitoring tools
    • Performance Co-pilot 6.3.0
    • Grafana 10.2.6
  • Compiler toolsets
    • LLVM Toolset 19.1.7
    • Rust Toolset 1.84.1
    • Go Toolset 1.23

Thank you to @rockylinux for being a silver sponsor for Flock!

Rocky Linux's work on RISC-V enablement is one of the many ways they have been active members of the community! See how they worked in Fedora to improve RISC-V support and then brought that to Rocky Linux 10.

@Linux @eu_os

I think it would be helpful if in your text on your codeberg account, you introduce the problem better that you identified and how you think it should be solved.

I understand that you prefer if a legal entity is registered in the EU. I tell you that Microsoft has Microsoft Ltd. in Dublin. This alone is not enough to keep the exist costs low.

A number of bright people from across the world have thought previously about these questions. The outcome is #almalinux and #RockyLinux.

🚨 It’s official: RISC-V will be joining the Rocky Linux 10 architecture lineup!

This milestone wouldn’t be possible without the incredible work of the Fedora RISC-V community. We’ve built on their upstream-first foundation to bring riscv64gc into the Rocky family—alongside x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le, and s390x.

Big thanks to @fedora, @RISC-V International, and everyone helping push open hardware forward.
