                 I just noticed that the version of cmake that comes
        with RHEL 6 is
                 currently 2.8.12.2 and the EPEL has a cmake28 package
        that is at
                 version
                 2.8.11.2. I believe that RHEL 6 originally shipped with
        cmake
                 2.6 and
                 updated in a later point release, but I have two questions:
                 1) Is the cmake28 a duplicate and need to be removed?


             Yes.


        Ok. Is this already being worked on? Or does a bugzilla need to be
        created for it?


    A quick search:
    
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=%3Acmake28&list_id=3417355

    turns up: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1159351

    There is some question as to whether or not it is worth the pain to
    retire.  I suppose you could also consider it pulling things away
    from EPEL users.  If it is kept, it probably should be updated at least.


Would it be possible to create a Bugzilla and request that a virtual
provide for cmake28 be added to the cmake package in RHEL? I believe
that would allow the package in EPEL to be retired without requiring
changes to existing .spec files. I'm guessing that a cmake28 symlink
might be needed as well, but it still seems possible and a solution that
shouldn't have too much headache.

Sure, anything is possible :). Although I don't see what the big deal about changing the EPEL packages would be. If anything, it would just bring them back in line with the Fedora branches.
