RHBA-2012:1246 - qt bug fix update

Synopsis

qt bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

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

Description

The qt packages contain a software toolkit that simplifies the task of writing and maintaining GUI (Graphical User Interface) applications for the X Window System.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Prior to this update, the mouse pointer could, under certain circumstances, disappear when using the IRC client Konversation. This update modifies the underlying codes to reset the cursor on the parent and set the cursor on the new window handle. Now, the mouse pointer no longer disappears. (BZ#678604)

• Prior to this update, the high precision coordinates of the QTabletEvent class failed to handle multiple Wacom devices. As a consequence, only the device that was loaded first worked correctly. This update modifies the underlying code so that multiple Wacom devices are handled as expected. (BZ#847866)

All users of qt are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this 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
