Hi Sam,


I am not sure of the current status of patches.    However, following 
the guidance in this thread:


https://app.smartsheet.com/b/home?lx=OCe85ThYDw4TRyYsh_CjoA


I rebuild the packages w/ 2 patches that have allowed my system to 
record until the final solution/packages were resolved.


If you aren't able to rebuild the rpms for any reason, let me know and I 
can kick it off again and upload those to google drive.


Michael
