Updated ltrace packages that fix several bugs are now available.
The ltrace utility is a debugging program that runs a specified command
until the command exits. While the command is executing, ltrace intercepts
and records both the dynamic library calls called by the executed process
and the signals received by the executed process. The ltrace utility can
also intercept and print system calls executed by the process.
This update brings following updates:
* ltrace was not able to trace a binary that was called using the "exec"
system call. With this update, ltrace is now able to do so.
* the ltrace(1) man page incorrectly claimed that ltrace could not trace
64-bit binaries.
* on the Itanium® architecture, a SIGILL signal was occasionally delivered
as a valid signal that informed ltrace about events in the traced binary.
However, ltrace misinterpreted the SIGILL as a signal delivered to the
traced binary.
* IBM System z machines newly support functions with five or more
arguments, which caused ltrace to crash when attempting to trace binaries
called with five or more arguments. This has been fixed with this update
and ltrace now works as expected.
* when ltrace was invoked with the "show summary" ('-c') switch, it
incorrectly did not report the summary to the file provided as an argument
to the '-o' option, but instead to standard output. This has been fixed so
that "ltrace -c" now outputs the summary to the file indicated in the
presence of the '-o' option, thus resolving the issue.
Users of ltrace are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
