Synopsis

rhpl bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

An updated rhpl package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The rhpl package contains a library of Python code used in programs throughout Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • When a user attempted to rebuild the rhpl package with version 0.17 of the gettext package that is shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, the make command failed with the following error:

    xgettext: Non-ASCII string at ../src/gzread.py:60.

With this update, this error no longer occurs and the rhpl package can now be rebuilt as expected. (BZ#669666)

All users of rhpl are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
