Did you look at a system before posting? Or just shoot from
the hip?

... cannot prove the fix exists to me so far. Sad that Red
Hat feels it has to play these games.
but I see in my mirroring:
/mnt/nfs/var/ftp/pub/mirror/redhat/rhel/rhel-5/5Server/all/SRPMS/redhat-rpm-config-8.0.45-17.el5.src.rpm
dunno when it showed up and it is not worth checking my detail
logs, because:
Johnny notes it has been updated and is in updates which have
been issued over a week ago -- it is a convenience fix, and
not a security matter

and _looking_, yum shows it updated on myC5 system
Les ... you have an open bug -- you think it is fixed
upstream. No SRPMS are noted in teh fix release which you
seemingly were able to find. The tests I did, you can do.
Why not lend a hand and point to available source RPMs rather
than carp on the mailing list on stale matters?
If you dislike non-security related updates notifications,
write a tool to provide you information on the changes.
