RHBA-2013:0449 - libvirt-cim bug fix update
Synopsis
libvirt-cim bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory (none)
Topic
Updated libvirt-cim packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The libvirt-cim package contains a Common Information Model (CIM) provider based on Common Manageability Programming Interface (CMPI). It supports most libvirt virtualization features and allows management of multiple libvirt-based platforms.
This update fixes the following bugs:
-
If the sblim-sfcb package was installed on the system, rebuilding the libvirt-cim package failed with an error due to an incomplete substitution in the Makefile. The substitution has been corrected and rebuilding libvirt-cim now works as expected. (BZ#805892)
-
When upgrading the libvirt-cim package to a newer version after libvirt-cim had registered its classes with a cim-server, the %preun code unregistered the classes leaving the system without libvirt-cim classes being registered. Now the libvirt-cim package only unregisters the libvirt-cim classes on uninstall. (BZ#864096)
Users of libvirt-cim 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.
