Details

Updated toolchain and glibc packages for s390 are now available which
contain the latest recommended patches by IBM as well as several other
bugfixes.

The latest recommended patches from IBM for gcc, binutils, and glibc for
the s390 architecture are now available. This update also contains several
bugfixes for the compiler and glibc as well, so upgrading to these packages
is recommended.


Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. 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.
