Synopsis
system-config-date bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated system-config-date package that fixes several bugs is now
available.
Description
system-config-date is a graphical interface for changing the system date and
time, configuring the system time zone, and setting up the NTP daemon to
synchronize the time of the system with an NTP time server.
- In a locale other than American English, when clicking on the "Show/Hide
advanced options" expander in the "Network Time Protocol" tab, its label
switched back from the language as set in the locale to English.
- system-config-date offered no help command line option and reacted poorly
on unknown command line options.
Users are advised to upgrade to this updated system-config-date package,
which resolves these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant 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.
