Comment 2 Florian La Roche 2006-05-10 13:50:23 UTC 
No strong opinion from me on what should be output, but this should
hopefully also be upstream and integrated there. Have you tried submitting
this also into a new GNU release of this package?

Thanks a lot for the patch,

Florian La Roche

This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.

Comment 5 Matthew Miller 2007-04-10 19:38:09 UTC 
Fedora Core 4 is now completely unmaintained. These bugs can't be fixed in that
version. If the issue still persists in current Fedora Core, please reopen.
Thank you, and sorry about this.
Comment 6 JW 2007-04-11 00:17:37 UTC 
Applicable to Fedora Core 6. Sorry about this.
Comment 7 JW 2008-01-28 00:42:56 UTC 
Applicable to Fedora Core 8.

This bug was first submitted in 2002.
