You will need to install the bzip2 package from the Red Hat 6.2 distribution. Not mentioning that requirement in the Errata Advisory and not providing this update on updates.redhat.com/6.0 is IMHO still a bug. People are usually _not_ meant to install RPMs from other releases as it's not always safe to do so. Possible solutions: 1) update the errata note to include the bzip2 requirement and download location 2) publish explicit bzip2 update for RH 6.0 Reopening bug. Red Hat does not currently release errata for enhancements like bzip2 on Red Hat 6.0 and Red Hat 6.1. Install the bzip2 package from Red Hat 6.2. |
