No need to be confused. Two different people have added different changes to the logs while the changes addressed the same issue.
Does ./7.1/a1/glibc-2.2-22.i386.rpm (dated August 6) contain the `correct' fix for the xdr_array-issue or the `defective' patch you mentioned? Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- PGP key available via WWW http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
