RHBA-2012:1321 - docbook-utils bug fix update

Synopsis

docbook-utils bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated docbook-utils packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The docbook-utils packages provide a set of utility scripts to convert and analyze SGML documents in general, and DocBook files in particular. The scripts are used to convert from DocBook or other SGML formats into file formats like HTML, man, info, RTF and many more.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Prior to this update, the Perl script used for generating manpages contained a misprint in the header. As a consequence, the header syntax of all manual pages that docbook-utils built was wrong. This update corrects the script. Now the manual page headers have the right syntax. (#639866)

All users of docbook-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
