It's ok Jonathan and I were just more curious, we missed that in the release notes.

The object now is just some good Friday humor for you ;-)

Can I ask for a bit of info as to why you've got objections?

The yum-conf-sl6x package is included by the comps.xml, and not required by any packages.

This makes it easy to remove via yum and easy to disable in kickstart via '-yum-conf-sl6x'.

For HELiOS, it shouldn't get in the way.....

I couldn't help but notice that yum-conf-sl6x-1.2 is installed as part of a default install of SL 6.4... is this a new "normal" or just something that was done accidentally while building 6.4?

Thanks,

Hi Jonathan,

When 6.4 was in beta there was a question about making '6x' enabled by default.  No one objected.  This change is noted in the Release Notes.
