A good definition of "current" is "Belonging to the present time." bind-9.7.3 came out 02/14, but the prior release was 9.7.2-P3 from last year and RHEL 5.6 carries Version : 9.3.6 Release : 16.P1.el5 Version : 9.7.0 Release : 6.P2.el5 both of which were released by Paul Vixie and crew at isc.org before recently formed rocks. N.B. pkgs.org is showing that CentALT is at current code and Fedora is using a release candidate! Centos.alt.ru CentALT RPM Repository has released the following this year alone: bind-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm bind-chroot-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm bind-devel-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm bind-libs-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm bind-pkcs11-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm bind-sdb-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm bind-utils-9.7.3-1.el5.i386.rpm clamav-0.97-1.el5.i386.rpm clamav-db-0.97-1.el5.i386.rpm clamav-devel-0.97-1.el5.i386.rpm clamav-milter-0.97-1.el5.i386.rpm clamav-server-0.97-1.el5.i386.rpm ipfw3-20101110-1.el5.i386.rpm ipt_account-0.1.21-1.el5.i686.rpm kernel-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i686.rpm kernel-devel-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i686.rpm kernel-headers-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i386.rpm kernel-PAE-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i686.rpm kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i686.rpm kernel-xen-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i686.rpm kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-238.1.1.1.el5.i686.rpm kmod-account-0.1.21-1.el5.i686.rpm kmod-account-PAE-0.1.21-1.el5.i686.rpm kmod-account-xen-0.1.21-1.el5.i686.rpm kmod-ipfw3-20101110-1.el5.i686.rpm kmod-ipfw3-PAE-20101110-1.el5.i686.rpm kmod-ipfw3-xen-20101110-1.el5.i686.rpm l7-filter-userspace-0.11-2.el5.i386.rpm ldns-1.6.8-1.el5.i386.rpm ldns-devel-1.6.8-1.el5.i386.rpm ldns-python-1.6.8-1.el5.i386.rpm mc-4.7.5.1-1.el5.i386.rpm nginx-0.9.4-1.el5.i386.rpm php-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-bcmath-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-cli-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-common-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-dba-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-devel-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-embedded-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-fpm-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-gd-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-imap-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-ldap-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-mbstring-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-mcrypt-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-mhash-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-mssql-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-mysql-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-ncurses-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-odbc-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-pdo-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-pgsql-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-process-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-pspell-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-recode-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-snmp-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-soap-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-tidy-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-xml-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-xmlrpc-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm php-zts-5.2.17-1.el5.i386.rpm postfix-2.7.2-2.el5.i386.rpm postfix-perl-scripts-2.7.2-2.el5.i386.rpm proftpd-1.3.3d-2.el5.i386.rpm proftpd-ldap-1.3.3d-2.el5.i386.rpm proftpd-mysql-1.3.3d-2.el5.i386.rpm proftpd-postgresql-1.3.3d-2.el5.i386.rpm repodata/ unbound-1.4.8-1.el5.i386.rpm unbound-devel-1.4.8-1.el5.i386.rpm unbound-libs-1.4.8-1.el5.i386.rpm unbound-munin-1.4.8-1.el5.i386.rpm vnstat-1.10-2.el5.i386.rpm vsftpd-2.3.4-1.el5.i386.rpm kind regards/ldv
