Description David Kovalsky 2007-08-03 11:45:28 UTC
Description of problem:
When the xinetd telnet config file is modified, RPM verify test fails. Since the
nature of config files is to be modifiable by the user, it should be marked as
no verify in the spec file. 

This affects automated TPS  test done by URT. Since we have telnet setup on
stable systems all of the TPS tests fail, so having this fixed would save us
some false positives.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
telnet-server-0.17-31.EL4.4

How reproducible:
always
