PGDG's 20 October repository retirement requires RHEL, Rocky and AlmaLinux 9.6/10.0 operators to update their OS minor release or deliberately switch to the frozen archive. Rolling EL9 and EL10 repository packages are unaffected.

A small but foundational JavaScript HTTP framework has reached v2 with a web-standards rewrite. Builders must test route wildcards, forwarded-header trust and explicit response returns before migrating.
The existing coverage-first mode keeps more query detail at the cost of possible series growth. Cost-first applies all reductions but only restores detail within the same series budget; it is a guardrail against metric-cardinality spikes, not a guarantee of a fixed bill.
