I wasn't considering it from the point of view of legal requirements,
but just from the
point of view of good manners and sound practice. Having various
different editions of
zsh (or anything) floating around out there that may or may not be
compatible seems
like a bad idea. (Strictly necessary 'local' compatibility issues for
any given distro
being, as Bart said, an exception. ) I was just curious if that sort of
thing happens
very often. Seems to me very poor for Bart to stumble upon a RedHat
supposed
bug fix that he doesn't even know about. You might think they'd notify
us. Just
wondering.
