Synopsis
amanda bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated amanda packages that fix two bugs are now available.
Description
Amanda is a network-capable tape backup solution.
These updated amanda packages resolve the following issues:
- the "amtapetype" command had a bug in memory management: an invalid
pointer was passed to the free() function. In some circumstances this
caused amrecover to fail with a "Extractor child exited with status 2"
error. The invalid pointer is no longer passed to free() and amrecover
extracts files from a tape backup as expected. (BZ#476971)
- previously, amanda sub-packages (including amanda-devel, amanda-server
and amanda-client) were only required to be the same version as amanda:
they did not check that their release was in sync with the base amanda
package. This could cause the packages to go out-of-sync and malfunction if
an attempt was made to update either the base amanda package or any of
amanda's sub-packages. With this update, both the version and release are
checked, ensuring all dependent packages remain in sync if either the base
package or any sub-packages are updated. (BZ#497111)
Users of amanda should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolves
these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
