From: bugzilla@redhat.com To: redhat-watch-list@redhat.com Subject: [RHBA-2001:031-05] New logcheck packages are available Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2001 15:00 -0400 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Bug Fix Advisory Synopsis: New logcheck packages are available Advisory ID: RHBA-2001:031-05 Issue date: 2001-03-13 Updated on: 2001-04-19 Product: Red Hat Powertools Keywords: Cross references: Obsoletes: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: New logcheck packages are available which solve the problem of having to edit the shell script in /usr/bin. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Powertools 7.1 - i386 3. Problem description: In previous packages of logcheck, the shell script would have to be manually edited. This breaks LSB compliance, since it is not a config file and is located in /usr/bin. The updated packages solve this problem by removing the configuration options from the shell script and placing them in a separate config file located in /etc/logcheck. 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. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): 31069 - /usr/bin/logcheck.sh not marked as a config file 6.
