Updated redhat-config-date package available

An updated redhat-config-date package fixing a symlink-related bug is now
available.

The redhat-config-date program is a graphically-oriented tool for setting
the system time, timezone, and date.

When changing the timezone, redhat-config-date makes a symlink from
/etc/localtime to the appropriate timezone file in /usr/share/zoneinfo.

If the system configuration includes a separate /usr partition, this can
cause a problem. The hwclock program (which is used to interact with the
system's hardware clock) is run at boot-time and requires access to the
selected timezone file. However, because hwclock runs before all file
systems are mounted, the symlink to the timezone file in
/usr/share/zoneinfo is invalid, and hwclock fails.

This erratum fixes the problem by copying the timezone file into
/etc/localtime instead of making a symbolic link.

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.
