Release Notes

8. Resolved Issues

8.1. All Architectures

• The data for TTY device activity reports was not generating correctly. Consequently, the command

sar -y failed, returning the error:

Requested activities not available in file

In this updated package, sar has been corrected so the -y option outputs the TTY device activity.

• Previously, setting max_fds to unlimited in /etc/multipath.conf would prevent the

multipathd daemon from starting. If number of open file descriptors needs to be set to the system

maximum, max_fds should be set to max.

• mod_perl is now re-based to version 2.0.4, the latest upstream release. This update applies several

updates, which include a bug fix that now allows mod_perl to work properly with Bugzilla 3.0.

• cups is now re-based to version 1.3.7. This update applies several bug fixes and enhancements,

including:

• Kerberos authentication is now supported.

• User-defined printer and job policies are now loaded correctly.

• Remote queue caches are no longer loaded when browsing is disabled.

• The classes.conf configuration file now has correct file permissions.

• lm_sensors has been re-based to version 2.10.7. This update applies several upstream

enhancements and bug fixes, including a fix that prevents libsensors from crashing with a General

parse error message when k8temp is also loaded.

• elfutils has been updated in this release to address the following bugs:

• The eu-readelf utility could crash when reading certain input files.

• The eu-strip utility is used in the rpmbuild procedures that create new binary packages.

It separates debugging information from executable code, to make -debuginfo packages.

A bug in this utility resulted in unusable debugging information for ET_REL files on the s390

platform; this affects Linux kernel module files (.ko.debug), and caused the generated kernel-

debuginfo packages not to work with Systemtap on s390.

• vnc-server is now re-based to version 4.1.2-14.el5. This update applies the following fixes:

• A bug that prevented vncserver from printing error messages when Xvnc failed to start is now

fixed.

• Xvnc no longer uses the wrong root window depth; it now uses the correct window depth

specified by the -depth option.

• A bug that causes the libvnc.so module to crash the X server is now fixed.

• Xvnc now supports GLX and RENDER extensions on all architectures.
