Doc Text:
* the net-snmp-perl and net-snmp-devel subpackages only required matching versions of net-snmp and net-snmp-lib, not matching releases. This meant that an update of either subpackage would not result in updates to the current releases of net-snmp (to get correct MIB files) or net-snmp-libs (to get correct libraries). These subpackages now require the same release for net-snmp-perl and net-snmp-devel, ensuring that the MIB files and libraries are brought up to date.

Description Jan Safranek 2008-11-03 14:00:53 UTC
Description of problem:
net-snmp-perl and net-snmp-devel requires only %{name} = %{version}. This should be %{name} = %{version}-%{release} to ensure that update of -perl and/or -devel subpackage pull updated versions of net-snmp (to get correct MIB files) and net-snmp-libs (to get correct libraries).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
net-snmp-5.1.2-15
