Updated s390utils package available

This updated s390utils package includes the latest upstream DeveloperWorks version from IBM.

The s390utils package contains utilities related to Linux for S/390.
Currently, there are provided the following programs:

- dasdfmt is used to low-level format eckd-dasds with either the classic linux disk layout or the
new z/OS compatible disk layout.
- fdasd is used to create or modify partitions on eckd-dasds formatted with the z/OS compatible
disk layout.
- zipl is used to make either dasds or tapes bootable for system IPL or system dump.
- zdump is used to retrieve system dumps from either tapes or dasds.

All users of the s390utils package are encouraged to update to the latest package.

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.

If up2date fails to connect to Red Hat Network due to SSL
Certificate Errors, you need to install a version of the
up2date client with an updated certificate. The latest version of
up2date is available from the Red Hat FTP site and may also be
downloaded directly from the RHN website:
