I've just packaged up the latest hotplug scripts into a release, and
they can be found at:
http://download.sourceforge.net/linux-hotplug/hotplug-2001_02_28.tar.gz
http://download.sourceforge.net/linux-hotplug/hotplug-2001_02_28-1.noarch.rpm
http://download.sourceforge.net/linux-hotplug/hotplug-2001_02_28-1.src.rpm
depending on which format you prefer.

The package fixes some problems that kept the last release from working
properly on RedHat 6.x based machines. There is also a bit of RedHat
init script assumptions in the package, due to the support of patches
from RedHat engineers :)
If people have problems with other distro bases, please let us know on
the linux-hotplug-devel mailing list.

Changes in this version from the last release are:
- added keyspan to the list of modules to be unloaded
- more network interface special cases: lo, plip
- cleanup, enable '#' comment lines (Gioele Barabuci)
- add 'usbcore' and comments to usb.handmap for hub device class
- cope with bash1 vs bash2 issue ("unset IFS")
- add /etc/hotplug/blacklist
- update README
- added patch from Trond Glomsrød to make the scripts able to
handle i18n properly. Might not work so well on older
initscript packages, especially non-redhat based systems.
Tweaked the patch to handle different locations of the
'functions' script.
- added patch from Trond Glomsrød to keep the ppp, ippp, and
isdn network interfaces from being called in the network
script.
- added patch from Adam Richter that removes dependency on /tmp
being writable.
