Description Hugh Bragg 2001-05-11 10:37:50 EDT

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.19-6.2.1 i586; Nav)

Description of problem:
We have been waiting on this bug for some time and it has been marked
resolved, but mailx-8.1.1-20 is still not available on the updates site.
It says there is a new version of mailx but it has not been posted on the
updates site.
There is no SRPM and no i386 versions of the updated mailx-8.1.1-20, just
the old mailx-8.1.1-16 that still core dumps at startup.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install mailx-8.1.1-16.i386.rpm
2.run mailx
3.core dump
	

Actual Results:  The new version was never released on the updates site

Expected Results:  I expected to see the new version

Additional info:

There are still plenty of people on the cc list for this suposedly resolved
bug

Building from the srpm supplied for RH72 seems to work for me (mailx-8.1.1-22)
but it would be nice if RH actually issued the patch for RH62 users rather than
assuming that everyone has upgraded (I'm personally still not happy to upgrade
production machines beyond RH62).

I don't think this warrants a bug-fix errata to go out.

greetings,
