RHEA-2011:0916 - m17n-lib enhancement update

Synopsis

m17n-lib enhancement update

Type/Severity

Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

An updated m17n-lib package that adds an enhancement is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The m17n-lib package contains a multilingual text library used primarily to allow the input of many languages with the input table maps from the m17n-db and m17n-contrib packages.

This update adds the following enhancement:

  • On Indian keyboard layouts, users were unable to enter the newly added Rupee Unicode symbol (U+20B9). With this update, the Alt_Gr (right Alt) key is supported, and it is now possible to map the Rupee symbol on a keyboard shortcut such as "Alt_Gr+4". (BZ#712118)

Users of m17n-lib are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which adds this enhancement.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at This content is not included.https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
