Search for %changelog in this output for the details: rpm2cpio gridengine-6.2u5-5.fc15.src.rpm | cpio --to-stdout -i gridengine.spec You definitely don't want that version if you run tightly-integrated parallel jobs, but there's a one-line fix for the bug (posts passim). _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
