Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated bash Shift_JIS packages that add one enhancement are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) is a shell or command language interpreter
that is compatible with the Bourne shell (sh) and incorporates features from the
KornShell interface (ksh) and the C shell (csh). Bash is the default shell for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The Shift JIS (SJIS) character encoding is used for
the Japanese language. The bash Shift_JIS packages provide Bash support for the
SJIS encoding.
This update adds the following enhancement:
- To avoid using the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 bash packages that do not
contain the latest bug fixes and enhancements, the bash Shift_JIS packages have
been upgraded to version 4.1.2 release 2. (BZ#1147859)
All users who require SJIS encoding support for Bash built-in functions should
install these updated packages, which add this enhancement.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
