Dear List, I learned something I did not realize about EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux): https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#What_is_Extra_Packages_for_Enterprise_Linux_.28or_EPEL.29.3F "EPEL packages are usually based on their Fedora counterparts and will never conflict with or replace packages in the base Enterprise Linux distributions." So basically, if you need something fixed or updated that is already in RHEL, EPEL will not update beyond RHEL. And if you really, really need something fixed, you are at the mercy of RHEL or you have to ask Nux!, who is a blooming genius that this kind of thing. In my experience, Nux! will respond to a request in a couple of days. If RHEL does respond, it will be in a couple of years. Nux! is the best bet. Interesting and makes sense when you think about it. -T
