Ray,
is this going to be in ET or should we verify this way?
Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2014-02-12 02:00:52 UTC 
a newer version is already in errata tool.  plymouth changed version schemes to make rel-eng build scripts work better.

i've updated the Fixed In field to the latest build of plymouth for clarity.
