This EL6 update has now built and has been though CI testing:

https://ci.centos.org/view/CentOS-Core/job/C6-x86_64-Pretest-Updates/171/console

And has been pushed to the Master mirror.

It should populate all mirror.centos.org servers in the next hour and
then external mirrors as they sync on their schedules.

I'll release the announce message shortly after mirror.centos.org
machines are populated.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
