Description Per Bjornsson 2004-10-27 21:29:58 UTC
In Bug 136774 there is a link to the VMware update patch site which
(according to the comments in that bug) will be listed in the FC3
release notes.

Unfortunately the http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/ link is broken... It
seems like the new canonical URL is
http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/

which I just checked, and which does appear to contain the latest
vmware-any-any patch etc. (This is where the patch maintainer pointed
in a recent posting on the VMware help forum, so I presume that it's
reasonably permanent.)

Comment 1 Warren Togami 2004-10-28 02:52:16 UTC
Final release notes were already submitted, so perhaps Sopwith must
take care of this?


Comment 2 Ed Bailey 2004-10-28 16:09:50 UTC
Per -- thanks for pointing this out!  Now if Sopwith can get
fedora-release rebuilt at this late date, we'll be golden...
