Synopsis
newt bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated newt packages are now available.
Description
Newt is a programming library for color text mode, widget based user
interfaces. Newt can be used to add stacked windows, entry widgets,
checkboxes, radio buttons, labels, plain text fields, scrollbars, etc., to
text mode user interfaces. This package also contains the shared library
needed by programs built with newt, as well as a /usr/bin/dialog
replacement called whiptail. Newt is based on the slang library.
This update fixes two issues:
- the library caused programs to crash in some situations when the user
pressed the pgup/pgdown keys
- anaconda failed to link on i386 due to changes in newt
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released
erratarelevant to your system have been applied. This update is
available via Red Hat Network. 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.
