RHBA-2013:0974 - mobile-broadband-provider-info bug fix update


Synopsis

mobile-broadband-provider-info bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated mobile-broadband-provider-info packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The mobile-broadband-provider-info packages contain listings of mobile broadband (3G) providers, associated network, and plan information.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, in the serviceproviders.xml file located in the /usr/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/ directory, "internet.saunalahti" was incorrectly specified as an APN (Access Point Name) value for the Sonera provider. This prevented the Sonera mobile broadband configuration from working. The stanza containing "internet.saunalahti" as an APN value for Sonera has been removed from the XML file, and the Sonera mobile broadband configuration now works as expected. (#BZ844288)

Users of mobile-broadband-provider-info 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.
