Thanks a lot, Dennis. That's part of the reply I was wishing for in the
first place ( as of technical approach; the political approach was
settled already )
FWIW: I've just built 0.9.8-2.el5 and also comited to CVS the modified
spec for EL-4. However I have not built it for EL-4 since I see no real
gain in that: rpmdev-vercmp says 0.9.8-2 (which is now in EL-4/testing)
is older than 0.9.8-2.el5 so once the newly built package lands in
EL-5/testing everything should be OK wrt the upgrade path.
