RHBA-2014:1537 - rhn-client-tools bug fix update


Synopsis

rhn-client-tools bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated rhn-client-tools packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Red Hat Network Client Tools provide programs and libraries that allow a system to receive software updates from Red Hat Network.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Previously, when specifying multiple server URL values in the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date config file and the string did not end with a semicolon character, the last server URL value could not be used by Yum. With this update, Yum can use all valid URL values even if the string does not end with a semicolon. (BZ#873784)

  • Several translation errors for the ko_KR, pt_BR, ru_RU, and zh_CN locales have been corrected. (BZ#1019184)

Users of rhn-client-tools 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
