Do you have a better explanation of why an update that changed (and 
broke) scsi device detection entered the update repository late in FC6's 
life?  That feature clearly wasn't needed on any machine that was 
already running, and clearly wasn't tested on a variety of hardware 
before being pushed.  From this side of the repo it looks random.
