Details

Updated tcpdump packages that fix a bug are now available.

The tcpdump tool is a command line utility for monitoring network traffic.

These updated packages resolve the following issue:

* on the S/390 and S/390x architectures, the libpcap library did not work
correctly with qeth devices when layer2 mode was disabled. This has been
fixed so that tcpdump now displays both incoming and outgoing packets
correctly.

Users of tcpdump are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.

Solution

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