The particular bug I am talking about is 0002329 >> http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2329. This was assigned on >> 01-20-2008 and, as far as I can tell, there's been no action other than >> it being acknowledged. I've also searched upstream with RHEL and FC and >> I cannot seem to find a bug report there though complaints of the >> problem can be found through searching the web. >> >> I do see the manual fix for it and will be testing that shortly. I am, >> however, dealing with a fairly rigid internal legal department that may >> not welcome a "fix" that's not "official". So I have two questions: >> >> 1) Is there an "official" or "accepted" way to inquire about the status >> of an open bug? >> 2) With regard to bug 0002329 is this something that has to be fixed >> upstream so it filters down to centos? >> >> Thank you! >> >> Eucke > The bug page gives you the status. It was assigned (to Karanbir), and he > ack'ed it. If it was fixed, it would be resolved.

It "might" be fixed by the time > 5.3 comes out, but do you want to wait? So it is a year old... people get busy... ;-P It must be of a low enough priority to not get a lot of attention. -- MailScanner is like deodorant... You hope everybody uses it, and you notice quickly if they don't!!!!
