iptables 1.2.5-3 should have been pushed as part of QU2, right?
Another victim of out-of-sync package update syndrome?
Correct, it was an errata that wasn't pushed at QU time.
(i.e., not ever even opened in the errata system)
This was fixed. rpmdiff and errata tool improvements help catch these types of issues now.
