Comment 2 Josh Boyer 2014-05-06 12:35:48 UTC
Fixed in Fedora git.  F19 should pick this up when we do the 3.14.y rebase.

Comment 6 Vincent Danen 2014-05-12 17:15:36 UTC
Was Fedora 19 updated?  All versions of Fedora were affected and I see no mention of F19 at all here.

Comment 7 Josh Boyer 2014-05-12 17:25:22 UTC
F19 is fixed with the 3.14.3 rebase in updates-testing.

Comment 8 Vincent Danen 2014-05-12 17:37:30 UTC
Perfect, thank you Josh.

> F19 is fixed with the 3.14.3 rebase in updates-testing.

Why is this bug not referenced in the update? See:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2014-6167/kernel-3.14.3-100.fc19

Also it is not in the RPM's changelog according to:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=515621

Comment 10 Josh Boyer 2014-05-13 12:12:39 UTC
The patch is there, as I already explained.

Thank you. To communicate this properly to users it should IMHO also be mentioned in the RPM changelog as it is done for the F20 update.

Comment 13 Josh Boyer 2014-05-13 13:04:07 UTC
We don't list every bug fixed in the RPM changelog.  The rebases and stable updates fix entirely too many bugs to list them all out.  We can't go back and add it to the changelog of the existing build anyway.

Comment 14 Fedora Update System 2014-05-13 22:12:08 UTC
kernel-3.14.4-100.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19.
