RHBA-2014:0485 - kdesdk bug fix update

Synopsis

kdesdk bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated kdesdk packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The kdesdk packages contain the KDE Software Development Kit (SDK) which is a collection of applications and tools used by developers. These applications and tools include - cervisia: a CVS frontend; kate: an advanced text editor; kbugbuster: a tool to manage the KDE bug report system; kcachegrind: a browser for data produced by profiling tools (for example cachegrind); kompare: a diff tool; kuiviewer: a tool for displaying a designer's UI files; lokalize: a computer-aided translation system focusing on productivity and performance; and umbrello: a UML modeller and UML diagram tool.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Previously, the umbrello UML modeller used logic based on recursive calls. As a consequence if a user created a diagram that had dependency graph cycles, umbrello entered an infinite loop and terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault. With this update, the application logic has been changed to use stack-based parent resolution. As a result, umbrello no longer terminates in the described scenario. (BZ#857002)

  • Prior to this update, the kompare utility hid underscore characters located at the bottom of a highlighted difference block when using certain fonts. This update fixes this bug. As a result, kompare correctly displays underscore characters in the described situation. (BZ#908709)

Users of kdesdk 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.

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
