From c633941941b55caee22220ec6b1c3375a09bbc8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Tridgell Date: Thu, 7 May 2026 05:27:45 +1000 Subject: [PATCH 37/43] ci: add Ubuntu 22.04 and AlmaLinux 8 workflows for backporting The intent is to validate that future security fixes still build and test cleanly on the oldest still-supported LTS releases of the two mainstream Linux families, so backports can be developed against the same CI surface as the trunk: - ubuntu-22.04: oldest GitHub Actions runner image still available (20.04 was retired in April 2025). Mirrors the existing ubuntu-build.yml step list. - almalinux-8: RHEL 8 rebuild, full support until 2029. Runs in an almalinux:8 container on ubuntu-latest because GHA has no native runner for the Fedora/RHEL family. Pulls libzstd/xxhash/lz4 dev headers from PowerTools + EPEL; commonmark via pip for the man page generator. Both jobs follow the same paths-ignore convention as the other workflows so a workflow-only change to one file won't fan out across the whole CI matrix.
