Comment 1 Ruediger Landmann 2011-03-24 02:52:23 UTC

This is the result of upstream bug 673855 which is expected to be resolved with the release of Publican 3.0 in a few weeks' time.

I don't think it's worth patching Fedora's Publican package in the meantime, but please reopen if you think this is something that needs fixing more urgently.

Cheers
