Description Steve Traylen 2010-06-20 20:03:28 UTC
Hi,
 The xerces2 to 3 upgrade in Fedora was a little late coming after
 the xerces3 release.

 This looks to have ended up affecting RHEL 6 beta as well.

 Any chance we could upgrade from 2 to 3. 

 I have some things in Fedora that I would like to get 
 into EPEL6 such as shiboleth.

 Steve.

This feature request did not get resolved in time for Feature Freeze
for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release and has now been
denied. It has been proposed for the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux
release. If you would still like it considered for the current
release as an exception, please make that request with your support
representative.

xerces-c-3.0.1-18.el6 is shipping with RHEL-6, and will be included in
the next beta, in the optional repos:

/mnt/redhat/nightly/latest-RHEL6.0/6/Server/optional/source/SRPMS/xerces-c-3.0.1-18.el6.src.rpm

That bug can be closed NOTABUG.
