[asterisk-users] Serious bug in 1.6.2.19 - what is the time frame to fix such bugs?

[Bruce B]

I am happy it's being taken care of.

Would the patch fix systems that used the Repo to install Asterisk 1.6.2.19?
That is where we all have problems. Or maybe a new version of Asterisk which
"yum update" would do the job?
