RHBA-2013:1254 - xmlrpc-c bug fix update


Synopsis

xmlrpc-c bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated xmlrpc-c packages that fix one bug are now available.

Description

XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol that uses XML to encode its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, features listed when the "--help" command was run were not consistent with the list when the "--features" command was run. Also, running the reproducer script resulted in "Unrecognized token" errors. With this update, listed features are consistent, and "Unrecognized token" errors are no longer displayed. (BZ#809819)

Users of xmlrpc-c 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.

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/site/articles/11258
