RHBA-2012:1164 - iok bug fix update

Synopsis

iok bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated iok packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The iok package contains an Indic on-screen virtual keyboard that supports the Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Marathi, Malayalam, Punjabi, Oriya, Sindhi, Tamil and Telugu languages. Currently, iok works with Inscript and xkb keymaps for Indian languages, and is able to parse and display non-Inscript keymaps as well.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Previously, when saving a keymap with a specified name, predefined naming convention was followed and the file name was saved with the "-" prefix without noticing the user. With this update, if the user attempts to save a keymap, a dialog box displaying the required file name format appears. (BZ#814541, BZ#814548)

  • This update provides the complete iok translation for all supported locales. (BZ#819795)

All users of iok are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix 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 https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
