I just noticed that the following packages which were announced as CEEA-2010:0460 [1],[2] but never made it onto the mirrors: spice-usb-redirector-4.5-2.el5_5.i386.rpm spice-usb-redirector-4.5-2.el5_5.x86_64.rpm
iirc, they were released by mistake and were removed immediately.
I see. However, kmod-spice-usb-redirector is in the 5.5 updates repository.

This was removed from EL 5.5 by upstream (as far as I can see), as well as renamed:
The kspiceusb-kmod package remains upstream. The above bug only pointed out a case where an error occurred *during removal* of the rpm package.
The kspiceusb-kmod package remains in CentOS because it is GPLv2, whereas spice-usb-redirector (now spice-usb-share) was removed because it's Proprietary.
Right ... I meant that kmod-spice-usb-redirector was removed from the distro (which is what we mistakenly released).
We could release both kspiceusb-kmod and spice-usb-redirector (they are both open source) ... but we normally do not release things on the Supplementary ISOs (GPL or not). That first release was a mistake.
Since 5.5 is going into the vault, we can do one of two things here ... not release the 2 supplementary files (our normal practice), or release them if there are people currently using our kmod-spice-usb-redirector.
I am open to either solution ... but if someone does not convince me they need those 2 packages, I vote for let it die since it should not have been released. I can be persuaded, however, if people need it.
Thanks, Johnny
