Description of problem:
rhn-applet needs a way to ignore specific rpm versions, or versions <=
some number, of an application.  For example, openoffice.org-1.1.3-2.5
has a bug that renders it unusable, forcing me to revert to version
1.1.2-11.5.  If I tell rhn-applet to ignore openoffice.org, then I
won't be alerted when the bug in 1.1.3-2.5 is fixed.  If I do not tell
rhn-applet to ignore openoffice.org, then I am constantly being
alerted to the newer version.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhn-applet-2.1.16-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See description

Comment 1 Matthew Miller 2006-07-10 23:03:17 UTC
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security
updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and
reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and
hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test
release, reopen and change the version to match.

Thank you!
