revisor
Support has been added for the upstream changes in anaconda.
The 'beta' release notice can now be turned on or off depending on
your needs.
sl-revisor-configs
The kickstart files provided have been renamed for simplicity.
We've also added a script for making an updated disc, containing
all the current published errata
Removed:
libproxy-mozjs
Requires an old version of xulrunner, upstream bug 797779.
We have removed it for now, when an updated package is released we
expect to build it.
If you need this package you can pull it from 6.2
libvirt-qpid
Requires an old version of qpid-cpp-client, upstream bug 839006
We have removed it for now, when an updated package is released we
expect to build it.
If you need this package you can pull it from 6.2
sanlock and tboot
Upstream only features these packages on x86_64, previously they
were in both arches.
If upstream returns support for these in the i686 tree, we expect
to package them again.
