For RHEL, no, they'll do a lot more than that if it's covered by the support contract. That's the business model: if they were just providing the integration testing, Centos would eat their lunch. > If something comes up with python how likely are they to build > their own fix? >From complaints I've seen on Fedora lists, and the behavior of Red Hat people on Python dev lists, I'd say if it's security, quite likely. Otherwise, depends on how many/how important the affected customers are. I'd guess it's very unlikely that something they'd consider worth fixing would arise. Kudos to Dimitri for pointing to the Red Hat policy in his parallel post.
