Not sure about that, RHEL-5 has systemtap 1.3
Frank, is that good enough?

which manpage is that?

Comment 12 from related bz


systemtap 1.3 should also be workable for a rhel5 rhevm build, but would need
the manual remote-invocation steps in comment #4.  (A shortly arriving new
version of systemtap, installed on the development machine only, should bring
automation, even with an older systemtap-runtime.)

That'd be the stap(1) man page, not part of the runtime.

"Not sure about that, RHEL-5 has systemtap 1.3  Frank, is that good enough?"

Good enough, yes.  

Ideally rhev-h should be kept up-to-date with respect to the underlying
rhel systemtap spins on an ongoing basis.  We're shipping stap1.4 for rhel6.1
and stap1.3 for rhel5.7.  We're anticipating stap1.5 for rhel6.2 and rhel5.8,
which will bring more remote-operation improvements.

rhev-h will automatically pick up whichever version is shipped in a release.  So in 5.7, we'll get 1.3.  This is assuming we're not shipping multiple versions, i.e. systemtap-runtime is 1.3 and also shipping systemtap-runtime1.4 alongside.
