Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 6.10

URL         : http://www.drupal.org
Summary     : An open-source content-management platform

System written in PHP that can support a variety of websites ranging from
personal weblogs to large community-driven websites.  Drupal is highly
configurable, skinnable, and secure.

Update Information:

Fixes for selinux issues and cron issues, as well as an upgrade to 6.10 to fix a
security flaw.    Prior updates to 6.9 fixed the selinux and cron issues, but
were in testing when the security fix was released.    IMPORTANT: This update
changes the location of the 'files' directories for each site from:
/etc/drupal/<sitename>/files  to  /var/lib/drupal/files/<sitename>  to allow
running drupal on a host in SELinux enforcing mode. This will require manual
intervention. Immediately after update, you'll need to move your files
directories and symlink to them from their old locations.    There is a script
in the new package docs, /usr/share/doc/drupal-6.10/drupal-files-migrator.sh,
that will work in some circumstances. It includes the commands needed to relabel
the SELinux contexts on your files, and is intended more as a guide than to be
run as-is. I have found issues with installations where one site is a symlink to
another. Patches welcome! Fixes for selinux issues and cron issues, no code or
database changes, packaging only.    IMPORTANT: This update changes the location

welcome!
