Comment 1 Josh Bressers 2008-06-27 20:08:24 UTC

It should be noted that this fix is only missing in Fedora 9.  The version of
Squid shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, and 5 are patched.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2008-07-03 03:16:25 UTC

squid-3.0.STABLE7-1.fc9 has been pushed to the Fedora 9 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
