Description Levente Farkas 2011-06-15 13:48:31 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 680029 ***

Comment 7 Jon Masters 2012-03-05 04:08:19 UTC
In RHEL6.3, kmod_version and kmod_release macros will be defined, so this fix will not be required. The other bug, 680029 requests that -v and -r be fixed to work, which will also correct this problem.
