Scientific Linux release 6.0 (Carbon)

Bug to be fixed? We'd like to use this package. Thanks.

SL 6.0 is a bit old at this point.  Can you move to SL6.4?  There have been 
numerous bug fixes since that release.
I wish, however that is not easy to do as this is a production server. So is 
the intention to label this as WONTFIX since this is a old distro release 
issue? Thanks for your help.

You can pull yum and its related plugins from 6.4.  That may help the issue.

It is a but more complex, but may resolve the problem.
