Description Andrew Mike 2020-08-03 15:07:03 UTC

Description of problem:
Xorg does not provide the X11 SECURITY extension; as a result, applications using this extension fail.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.20.6-3

How reproducible: Consistently

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run # xdpyinfo -display :0 | grep -ir SECURITY

Actual results: No SECURITY extension is listed.

Expected results: The SECURITY extension is listed.

Additional info:
- This was previously removed from RHEL 7 GA (see BZ 1464275), but reinstated in later versions.
