Details
Diskcheck, a program supplied with Red Hat Linux 7.2, does not function
properly as shipped. This version corrects the problem.
Diskcheck, a small utility supplied with Red Hat Linux 7.2, is used to
optionally notify the System Administrator when disk space on one or more
partitions drops below a pre-defined level. Several problems with the
program caused it to not function as intended. Additionally, the sample
configuration file contained syntax errors. All known problems have been
corrected.
Solution
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.
