raidtools bug fix update

An updated raidtools package that fixes a RAID array bug is now available.

The raidtools package includes the tools needed to set up and maintain a
software RAID device (using two or more disk drives in combination for
fault tolerance and improved performance) on a Linux system. It only works
with Linux 2.2 kernels and later, or with a 2.0 kernel specifically patched
with newer RAID support.

When a member of a software RAID array fails, the array is left in a
degraded but operational state. If a defunct member was the first disk in
the array, raidtools failed to restart the array in degraded mode if the
system was rebooted.

Users of raidtools should upgrade to this updated package, which resolves
this issue.

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
