I think this is actually the right solution. To either upgrade old box
to CentOS 7 or to move to new box running it.
Of course it is. We're talking stop-gap measures here :)
Another idea that I had was to not require GnuTLS-3.2.0 every time.
I
mean, what are the reasons we want GnuTLS? For better TLS in general
(where it makes sense to require 3.2.0 or newer) and for PRNG (where
1.2.0 or what is it that CentOS 6 has is sufficient). So what I am
suggesting is loosen the minimal requirement to whatever version CentOS
6 has unless remote/qemu drivers are built in which case 3.2.0 or newer
is required.
If that doesn't end up looking *too* disgusting it's certainly
a possiblity.
I still like the container route better because, as mentioned
elsewhere in the thread, it would allow us to drop CentOS 6
entirely from the CI environment.
