Hi folks, I've been informed by a couple of people that there's a bug which occurs when using multiple architecture flavours of CentOS (e.g. x86_64 and i386) together. Essentially you only get errata published for the first one listed. Unfortunately I can't test this scenario as we're x86_64 only here so a fix will take a little while as any changes will have to be tested by an affected user. Working on it though :) Thanks & regards, -- David Nutter Tel: +44 (0)131 650 4888 BioSS, JCMB, King's Buildings, Mayfield Rd, EH9 3JZ.
