Current evaluation

Task to re-enable disabled almalinux and CentOS spread tests in charmcraft, blocked on a craft-providers fix and a CentOS image source; last touched 381 days ago with no resolution.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The issue is a legitimate internal task (not a support request) that was triaged by maintainer lengau, who noted #1824 should fix alma but a CentOS image source is still missing. It is blocked on external dependencies (craft-providers#502 and image availability), so it should remain open rather than closed as stale, though it has been inactive for over a year.
