a bug or providing an updated image (eg for a newer kernel, a newer secure
boot shim, and so on).
The third format in the list is a symlink to the "latest" ISO. Currently, this
is not advertised on the main site, but there may be potential for this in
the future as a value add.
The third format is also in the case of a rebuilt ISO. This will always point
to the absolute latest ISO of its type. This is used for osinfo and may be
used on our main website. This serves as a predictable method to download
the latest ISO whether from curl/wget or using libvirt that relies on osinfo
to provide the download URL.
This is "unversioned" ISO symlink is for these cases:
* A pre-determined download location for users/mirrors/service providers who
want an always available and deterministic download location, which can be
easier to script
* osinfo database / libvirt use where if a user selects Rocky Linux X, it
should be aware of and be able to download from that location. This should
be fully supported in Rocky Linux 8.7 and 9.1, and future Fedora versions.
The fourth format in the list is a symlink to the "latest" ISO. This was
originally used as part of osinfo and has been carried over for backwards
compatibility reasons.
