RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker

been denied for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.

** If you would still like this issue considered for the current

Comment 3 Pravin Satpute 2010-07-19 14:24:22 UTC 
s-c-l is trying to install              
$yum groupinstall faroese-support

which is right as per locale fo_FO as well
"% Faroese language locale for Faroe Islands"

but somehow looks there is spelling mistake in comps for rhel6
group is defined with name
    <id>faeroese-support</id> 
this is wrong

even wikipedia also says same http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faroese_language

need to fix this in comps
