Comment 2 David Milburn 2008-04-17 16:26:55 UTC
Reopen, BZ 441707 is for RHEL4

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2008-07-25 17:04:32 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in
the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like
this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your
support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?".

Comment 4 Ludek Smid 2008-07-25 21:55:17 UTC
Unfortunately the previous automated notification about the
non-inclusion of this request in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 used
the wrong text template. It should have read: this request has been
reviewed by Product Management and is not planned for inclusion
in the current minor release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor
release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y
flag to "?" or raise an exception.
