RHBA-2011:1227 - bltk bug fix update
Synopsis
bltk bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
An updated bltk package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The bltk (Battery Life Tool Kit) package includes binaries and scripts to test battery life.
This update fixes the following bugs:
-
Prior to this update, the bltk tree was corrupted. As a result, the bltk_report script failed. This update modifies the settings of the bltk root path. Now, the report script works as expected. (BZ#618308)
-
Prior to this update, bltk could be installed without requiring the gnuplot binary. As a result, the bltk_plot script exited with an error message when the gnuplot package was not installed and the charts were shown from measured data. This update requires the gnuplot package for its installation. Now, the bltk_plot script no longer exits with an error. (BZ#679028)
All bltk users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at This content is not included.https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259/
