Hi, I believe their main problem is the enormously lengthy procedure to release an rpm in EGEE/LCG. Said that I don't approve at all of this method as it globally screws up sites that update quickly. Now not only the bugged rpm needs to be downgraded by hand but also most of the other rpms involved in the upgrade are out of sync with the current repository and probably will need manual dependencies fiddling. cheers alessandra David Grellscheid wrote: >> My suggestion of just releasing an higher numbered rpm with the bug >> removed was not favoured. >> > > Unbelievable!
