True enough, but sadly there are bugs out there that should have been fixed years ago. Probably 2/3 of all Red Hat Linux bug reports are not really relevant to the current situation, but the other 1/3 might well be. It takes a lot of time to sort these out. If you are interested in bug triage please join #fedora-bugs (Wednesday bug day). Also I have built a tool to categorize bugs (http://www.ottolander.nl/bughunt/) that I have been using on a few packages (anaconda, rpm, gnome-panel, mc). I hope this tool will help to get maintainers to fix more bugs by creating some order in the chaos of bugs. Regarding your specific issue, this seems to be fixed in "RawHide", but I guess that is for FC 2 only. If you want this fixed in FC 1 best bet is to attach a patch, and hope that a glibc-kernheaders update is released before EOL. Anyway, having a patch in bugzilla is useful for other people that are experiencing the same issue. Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research
