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.

Christian, please refrain from further on molesting me with this kind of mails.

All these PRs originate from non-cooperative maintainers, having ignored PRs for
a very long time.

Just to note, that Christian is actually nice, he could just close it down as
obsolete bug (err, he probably cannot, but I can :-)). So, I am closing this
bug, and if you will be able to reproduce this bug on FC{5,6,rawhide}, please,
feel free to reopen this with additional information.

He should have better complained about RH employee Chris Aillon having done his
job for almost a year. It's always nice to experience RH's collaboration with RH.
