Comment 1 Josh Bressers 2005-01-13 22:47:35 UTC

Dan,

We're going to need some new packages rolled for RHSA-2005:027 to fix this new
issue.  Please respect the embargo when working with CVS.

Comment 2 Josh Bressers 2005-01-14 12:16:54 UTC

The patch URL does not yet work.  We don't have a patch from upstream yet.  I'll
update the bugs as soon as I know.

Comment 3 Mark J. Cox 2005-01-19 10:22:27 UTC

Now public, see URL for patch, removing embargo

Comment 4 Dan Williams 2005-01-19 16:53:07 UTC

Marco, you want to take this one?  If not I'll do it.

Comment 5 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2005-01-19 16:55:40 UTC

Dan, I'm working on it. I built the package and I'm finishing to file the
errata. I'm a bit slow because it's my first errata... hopefully I'm doing
things right ;)

Comment 6 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2005-01-19 19:49:11 UTC

I *think* everything is done here. Please let me know if there are problems,
it's my first errata, I tried to be careful but... it's not the simpler process
in the world ;)

Comment 7 Josh Bressers 2005-01-19 20:04:12 UTC

Marco,

The things look fine, thanks.  I'm moving the bug to modified.
