I don't think there's any functional difference in the patches, but package 
freeze was occurred before the release of the allinone patch.

/lib/tls/libc.so.6 would be glibc ...

However, I'm running a rebuild of the 4.2.0-2mdv package (client only, but it 
still has hobbitlaunch) on a 2006.0 machine with no problems, as well as on 
my cooker laptop and 2007.0 x86_64 desktop.

Also, all the RedHat boxen in my environment run rebuilds of that package, 
including the hobbit server.

Which files did you modify after installation?

I haven't got a CS4 install around at the moment, but I'll see if I can change 
that ...

Buchan
