Ugg ... thanks for letting us know.  For SL 4.6 we cleaned all these up (I 
really hope) but that doesn't clean up the errata in the other releases.
I'll take a shot at cleaning this up, which might involve moving the older 
rpm's into the obsolete area.
If there are any more that people see, please let us know.
Thanks
Troy
