Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Luci not parsing distribution release string from the remote ricci agent Any two-or-more digits minor version in the distribution release string from the remote ricci agent was unexpectedly truncated to the initial digit only by luci. Consequence: The conditional logic based on the distribution release version of the managed node(s) lead to several features being dropped when the remote side uses two-or-more digits minor version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Specifically, several regressions in configuration items provided in luci might have been introduced when the nodes managed by the unpatched luci were running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.10, as this was errorneously understood as 5.1 version in that case. Fix: Luci now parses minor versions correctly, expecting more than single digit number. Result: Luci will not get confused when managing nodes running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.10 (or later minor updates).

Description Jan Pokorný 2014-03-03 15:59:47 EST
The regression is introduced in 5.10 release, or more specifically,
when talking to el5.10+ ricci.  Due to oversimplification of a way
to parse distro minor version, counting on never exceeding single
digit...
