pdksh bug fix update

Advisory:	RHBA-2007:0111-2
Type:	Bug Fix Advisory
Severity:	N/A
Issued on:	2007-04-18
Last updated on:	2007-06-11
Affected Products:	Red Hat Desktop (v. 3) Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v. 3) Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (v. 3) Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS (v. 3)

Details

An updated pdksh package that fixes two bugs is now available.

The pdksh package contains PD-ksh, a clone of the Korn shell (ksh). The ksh
shell is a command interpreter intended for both interactive and shell
script use. Ksh's command language is a superset of the sh shell language.

This update addresses a bug where pdksh did not recognize signals by name
and another bug where certain ksh scripts caused pdksh to abort.

Users of PD-ksh are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.
