Description of problem:
The description of the kernel RPM refers to the kernel being the core
of Red Hat Linux, rather than Fedora.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.22-1.2135.nptl

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -q kernel -i
2. read the description
Comment 1 Dave Jones 2004-01-14 05:51:20 UTC 
Fixed in latest update kernel
Comment 2 Ben Stringer 2004-07-28 02:55:55 UTC 
I'm still seeing the reference to Red Hat in the latest FC1 series of
kernels.

Eg. 
$ rpm -q --qf %{DESCRIPTION} kernel-2.4.22-1.2197.nptl
The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of
the Red Hat Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic
functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process
Comment 3 Arjan van de Ven 2004-07-28 07:51:34 UTC 
You probably have specspo installed which overrides the descriptions
from the actual package.
Comment 4 Ben Stringer 2004-07-28 13:33:54 UTC 
Thanks - I was not aware of specspo, but I do have it installed, as it
shipped with FC1, and I installed all packages.  I'll change this
bug's component to specspo.
Comment 5 John Thacker 2006-04-21 17:24:24 UTC 
This is fixed in more recent specspo packages.
