Synopsis:	sysreport bug fix update
Issue date:	2007-12-10

This updated version of sysreport addresses an issue in which sysreport
gathered stack traces from currently running proceses by default. This
potentially-dangerous behavior has been made optional, requiring the
"-sysrq" option to be passed to sysreport.

SL 3.0.x

    SRPMS:
sysreport-1.3.7.2-19.src.rpm
    i386:
sysreport-1.3.7.2-19.noarch.rpm
    x86_64:
sysreport-1.3.7.2-19.noarch.rpm
