Description

Also, all other major Linux distros have dblatex 0.3. Being stuck to 0.2.8 in RHEL really prevents us to easily redistribute any application which uses recent features of dblatex (current release is 0.3.2, see http://sourceforge.net/projects/dblatex/files/dblatex/dblatex-0.3.2/). Fedora has 0.3, so it shouldn't be a big deal to also have it available for RHEL. The "deal" is the EPEL update policy. Being stuck with 0.2.8 is a corollary of sticking with RHEL 5 rather than upgrading to RHEL 6. Is there still any need for upgrading dblatex in EPEL 5? The non-gitty state of affairs of dblatex in fedora-scm does not exactly help forwarding the EPEL 5 branch. Closing NOTABUG because sticking with an old version of package is a consequence of sticking with RHEL 5. |
