Name        : gettext
Versions    : rh9: gettext-0.11.4-7.2.legacy
Versions    : fc1: gettext-0.12.1-1.2.legacy
Versions    : fc2: gettext-0.14.1-2.1.2.legacy
Summary     : GNU libraries and utilities for producing multi-lingual
              messages.
Description :
The GNU gettext package provides a set of tools and documentation for
producing multi-lingual messages in programs. Tools include a set of
conventions about how programs should be written to support message
catalogs, a directory and file naming organization for the message
catalogs, a runtime library which supports the retrieval of translated
messages, and stand-alone programs for handling the translatable and
the already translated strings. Gettext provides an easy to use
library and tools for creating, using, and modifying natural language
catalogs and is a powerful and simple method for internationalizing
programs.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

An updated gettext package that fixes security bugs is now available.

The GNU gettext package provides a set of tools and documentation for
producing multi-lingual messages in programs.

Temporary file vulnerabilities were discovered in the gettext package. A
malicious user could use the "autopoint" and "gettextize" scripts to
create or overwrite another user's files. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-0966 to
this issue.

All users of gettext should upgrade to this updated package, which
includes a patch to correct these issues.
