RHBA-2011:1468 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
less bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated less package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The less package contains a text file browser that is similar to the more
browser, but with more features ("less is more"). The less text file browser
allows users to move backwards in the file as well as forwards. Because the less
utility does not need to read the entire input file before it starts, it starts
up faster than text editors.
- Prior to this update, a debuginfo file for a binary was missing from the
less-debuginfo package. As a result, the crash analysis via the Automatic
Bug-Reporting Tool (ABRT) did not work as expected and debugging via GNU
Debugger (GDB) could fail. This update modifies the spec file so that the crash
analysis via ABRT and debugging via GDB work as expected. (BZ#734827)
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
