| thank you for doing this.  your efforts have already saved me some
| effort!
|
| i did some unscientific comparisons between an i386 box and my opteron
| and think i noticed a few more packages that are out of sync.
|
| package    version on i386         version on x86-64
| -------------------------------------------------------------------
| net-snmp   net-snmp-5.1-2.1        net-snmp-5.0.9-2
| kernel     kernel-2.4.22-1.2149    kernel-2.4.22-1.2135
| glibc      glibc-2.3.2-101.4       glibc-2.3.2-101.1
|
| is this data correct?  is it worth updating these packages?
|
| the kernel package seems important, but i'm running 2.6.2-rc2 so i don't
| care too much.
|
| let me know what you think, and thanks again for the slocate update!

[csm at stealth rpms]$ rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.3.2-101.4
glibc-2.3.2-101.4

*there are two of these because one provides x86 compatibility I will
see about an update

[csm at stealth rpms]$ rpm -q net-snmp
net-snmp-5.0.9-2 <---- I will see about providing an update for this.

[csm at stealth rpms]$ rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.4.22-1.2135.nptl
kernel-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl <---- I can provide an update for this also
but I don't want to do both... seems unnecessary!
