Is there anyone here with access to the "depends upon bugs"
   516950 516951 516952 516953 516954 516955 517444 517445
who can tell us what is taking Red Hat so long ?

I'm very tempted to waste time and roll my own 
2.6.18-128.4.1.el5+CVE.2009.2692 jut for my own piece of mind,
but I see that they have submitted *three* updates for Fedora 11*
so they may be having problems ...

*	kernel-2.6.29.6-217.2.7.fc11
 	kernel-2.6.30.5-28.rc2.fc11
and	kernel-2.6.30.5-32.fc11

[ If I were paying for support from Red Hat I would take a one
   one month holiday at the end of my current contract as a protest
   at the delay, unless I knew what was going on.

Thanks,
