aws/eks-anywhere v0.25.4

on GitHub

Supported OS version details

* Starting with EKS-A minor release v0.25.0, the bundled Kubernetes Image Builder will no longer support Ubuntu 20.04 LTS builds, as Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Standard Support has ended, and the upstream Kubernetes Image Builder no longer supports Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
* RHEL 8's kernel version (4.18) is not supported by kubeadm for Kubernetes versions 1.32 and above (see Kubernetes GitHub issue #129462). As a result, EKS Anywhere does not support using RHEL 8 as the node operating system for Kubernetes versions 1.32 and above.

Added

• redhat_epel_rpm and epel_rpm_gpg_key image-builder configuration options, allowing RHEL images to be built in networks that cannot reach the Fedora EPEL mirrors (#5631)
