Description John Dennis 2009-02-23 21:52:54 UTC 
We want to supplement the existing freeradius-1.1.3 package in
RHEL5 with the current version of freeradius which is currently 2.1.3 (soon to
be supplanted by upstream with 2.1.4, which if available is what we'll want to
ship in RHEL5.4). Note that upgrading freeradius to a current version is a
major version upgrade and requires completely different configuration of the
service, thus we will leave freeradius-1.1.3 in RHEL5 but we want to add a new
package freeradius2 which is the current 2.x upstream. We need to make a
current version of freeradius available because the existing 1.1.3 version is
ancient, has many known problems, upstream will no longer support anything less
than 2.x, and 2.x has many desirable features.
