Description Richard W.M. Jones 2011-08-29 18:24:21 UTC 
hivex has a small number of bug fixes between 1.2.4 (in RHEL 6)
and the latest upstream 1.3.1.  See:

http://git.annexia.org/?p=hivex.git;a=shortlog

Upstream we take backwards compatibility very seriously, so there
should be no API or ABI regressions caused by this rebase.

The alternative is maintaining a package with ~40 patches.
