The bug is fixed in RHCS 3.0.2 so closing it is apropriate. I wouldn't
object to remove RHCS 2 from Lenny though since I never got anything to
work with RHCS2 either (neither rgmanager nor gfs). I'm cc'ing the
maintainers of the RHCS2 package in Lenny. Is there anybody really using
RHCS 2 in Lenny in production? If not we should remove it.
