Running up2date -uf resulted in the following error: Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies... There was a package dependency problem. The message was: Unresolvable chain of dependencies: openssh-server-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.11 requires audit-libs >= 1.0.12 The latest version of audit-libs available on webqa is audit-libs-1.0.3-6.EL4.i386 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always.

> The latest version of audit-libs available on webqa is > audit-libs-1.0.3-6.EL4.i386 Well, this is the problem as newer audit library is really required and it was scheduled for U3 update as well so it shouldn't be a problem?
