This bug is VERY old, do we have an udpate/patch for this?

Comment 2 David A. Cafaro 2015-04-29 12:52:02 UTC
Upstream has indicated that support for this package has been dropped and no fix is being provided.  Unless there is interest in creating a patch and fixing this, the package will need to be marked as abandoned and removed from the repos.

Has this happened?  Sounds like EPEL6 is the only thing still shipping this.  Everything else has dropped it.

This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

Comment 6 Ben Cotton 2020-11-05 16:46:32 UTC
This message is a reminder that EPEL 6 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for EPEL 6 on 2020-11-30. It is our policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of 'el6'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later EPEL version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before EPEL 6 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Comment 7 Ben Cotton 2020-11-30 15:19:26 UTC
EPEL el6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-30. EPEL el6 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
EPEL please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 8 Red Hat Bugzilla 2023-09-14 01:26:04 UTC
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
