[ol7_u3_base] psacct-6.6.1-11.el7.x86_64

The psacct package contains several utilities for monitoring process
activities, including ac, lastcomm, accton and sa. The ac command
displays statistics about how long users have been logged on. The
lastcomm command displays information about previous executed
commands. The accton command turns process accounting on or off. The
sa command summarizes information about previously executed
commands.

    bug (#54165)

  - rebuild in new environment for FHS correctness

• Thu Jan 31 2002 Mike A. Harris <mharris@redhat.com> 6.3.2-11

  - Conditionalized acct-6.3.2-config.patch to only be applied for RHL 7.x
    builds, as it breaks FHS compliance by putting files in nonstandard
    locations.  Also fixed up other places in specfile for FHS 2.2.
  - Added acct-6.3.2-I-HATE-GNU-AUTOCONK.patch because I hate GNU autoconk
    really really badly.
    
  - Bumped to -11 to avoid buildsystem stupidness

• Thu Sep 06 2001 Mike A. Harris <mharris@redhat.com> 6.3.2-9

    now compress them daily.
