Hi Pat,

I now see -rocee is from the High Performance Network add-on. Having them in the SL base seems consistent with how other add-ons (scalable filesystem etc.) are handled. On the other hand, those don't replace base packages. Maybe this one is a case for doing it differently?

> The missing -rocee i686 packages in x86_64 is more of a puzzle.  My archived copy of EA-2013-1740 from 2013-11-21 does not show the i686 packages in x86_64, but the current publication does.  There was probably a documentation error somewhere.  I'll get the fixes staged up.

It would be nice to get the corresponding packages from RHBA-2013-1830 into fastbugs too, since the ones from RHBA-2013-1830 seem rather broken.

Again, sorry for bringing this up the very day you wanted to release 6.5 :-(
