Comment 1 Bill C. Riemers 2007-07-31 16:13:30 UTC

What does RAWHIDE mean?

Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2007-07-31 16:28:43 UTC

It means it's fixed in rawhide (Fedora devel).  I won't be making a special F-7
update for this documentation issue.

Comment 3 Bill C. Riemers 2007-07-31 16:40:29 UTC

OK.  Just curious, why is this considered a documentation issue rather than a
kernel bug?

Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2007-07-31 16:50:21 UTC

Because there's no good way to implement it (apparently).
