Hello.
I noticed that while ago perl-Net-Telnet got built for EPEL. Now perl-Net-Telnet is already included in both RHEL4 and RHEL5 albeit older versions. So the result is that now the EPEL version is overriding the package supplied by RHEL. Is this intentional?

No it isn't intentional, and not conform the EPEL policies.
Has the package recently been included in 5.2/4.7 or have I been completely ignorant? Can someone tell me? Or better yet, where can I figure this out on my own? In RHN, I can only find the 3.03-3.noarch, not the el4 version... although I haven't tried every single one of my i-dont-know-how-many accounts.
So, based on what I see in CentOS, I find the perl-Net-Telnet package in 5.2, 4.7 and 3.9, but not in 5.1 or 4.6.
Please enlighten me ;-)
Kind regards,

AFAICS the perl-Net-Telnet package was there since RHEL 5.0 and there has been only one version, 3.03-5.
On RHEL 4, it was included with RHCS (also from the beginning AFAIK), and the only version seems to be 3.03-3.
None of these packages uses an .elX dist suffix (unfortunately the use of dist is not always done consistently).
