While going through and updating/patching a client's site (on 1.4.0.1), I was unable to apply patch 6285 because it requires patch 5994 to be installed first. However, the earliest version for patch 5994 is 1.4.1-1.4.2. What can I do in this situation? We're in the process of upgrading to latest version for a new launch early next year and I'd rather not leave the install unpatched for that long.
