--------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Bug Fix Advisory Synopsis: GNU C Library bugfix update Advisory ID: RHBA-2002:056-05 Issue date: 2002-04-02 Updated on: 2002-04-04 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: glibc Cross references: Obsoletes: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated packages are available which fix several bugs that have been discovered in glibc. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, alphaev6, i386, i686, ia64 Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386, i686, ia64 3. Problem description: Refer to the listed bugzilla entry numbers or download the packages and run the following command for more details: rpm -qp --changelog glibc-2.2.4*.rpm 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): 61492 - getXXbyYY performs an extra close on nis/nisplu lookups 60674 - Default pthread mutexs cause SIGSEGV on SMP IA64 machines. 60350 - ftime millisecond rollover off by one 59951 - Imap creates bad timezone 60747 - Daylight Time defined in TZ fails for Southern Hemisphere 60745 - __mpn_construct_double not signal safe (compiler bug) 60763 - fabs() not signal safe (compiler bug) 6.
