Details

An updated control-center package that fixes a memory leak bug is now
available.

GNOME (the GNU Network Object Model Environment) is an attractive and
easy-to-use graphical desktop environment. The control-center package
provides the GNOME Control Center utilities, which allows setup and
configuration of a system's GNOME environment (such as the desktop
background and theme, the screensaver, the window manager, system sounds,
and mouse behavior). If GNOME is installed, control-center is required.

This updated package addresses the following issue:

- Memory leaks in gnome-settings-daemon are triggered by changes in
keyboard settings.

All users of control-center should upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.
