Synopsis

new packages: gcc-libraries

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

New gcc-libraries packages are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The new gcc-libraries packages contain various GCC runtime libraries, such as libatomic and libitm. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9, libitm was a separate package that included the libitm library. The libitm package is now deprecated and replaced by the gcc-libraries packages.

This enhancement update adds the gcc-libraries packages to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. (BZ#906241)

All users who require gcc-libraries are advised to install these new packages.
