Subject: [RHBA-2001:043-03] db3 update broke perl's DB_File module. From: bugzilla@redhat.com To: redhat-watch-list@redhat.com Date: Tue, 3 Apr 2001 16:34 -0400 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Bug Fix Advisory Synopsis: db3 update broke perl's DB_File module. Advisory ID: RHBA-2001:043-03 Issue date: 2001-04-03 Updated on: 2001-04-03 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: db3 perl Cross references: RHEA-2001:015-09 Obsoletes: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated perl RPM packages are now available for Red Hat Linux 7. These packages fix problems with the DB_File module introduced by the RHEA-2001:015-09 enhancement errata. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386 3. Problem description: The db3 errata RHEA-2001:015-09 causes perl's DB_File module to reject the db3 libs after import, due to version mismatch. The bug fix is a simple recompile of perl against the newer version of db3. 4. Solution: 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.
