Seth,

We had a need for this app on CentOS-4 ... we want it to do what it
already does in the newer versions.  I would have thought that the guys
who wrote it would have already done it for the CentOS-4 version of
python if they were interested in providing it there too :D

Are you interested in backport type things like this to yum-utils and
other aps (for older versions)?

If yes, we are certainly glad to provide that info.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
