Ha Ha. This was specifically related to Universe 11.1.4 being supported on RHEL 6.0, 6.1, or 6.2 https://u2tc.rocketsoftware.com/matrix.asp
Since Red Hat makes all of their releases binary compatible, Rocket does not publish minor version numbers with Red Hat. They do however, for OS's like AIX. This is not in relation to how many bugs there might be in RHEL 6.x That is dependent on a lot of different factors, like hardware, etc. Red Hat published a bunch of release notes, tech notes, etc. with bug fixes, etc. http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/index.html At any rate, as far as my project goes... I'm not going to revert to RHEL 5.7 because I'm afraid, and then in two years have to convert to RHEL 6.x because Red Hat stopped supporting it, and have to go through all of this nonsense again. Just my take on things... Thought I'd pass the info along, as I remember someone asking about upgrading an old Red Hat box.
