RHBA-2009:1594 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
gail bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated gail packages that resolve an issue are now available.
Description
GAIL, the GNOME Accessbility Implementation Library, implements the
abstract interfaces found in the Accessibility Toolkit (ATK) for GTK+ and
GNOME libraries, and thereby enables accessibility technologies such as
AT-SPI (the Assistive Technology Service Provider Interface) to access GUI
elements.
These updated gail packages fix the following bug:
- when starting a GNOME application at the shell prompt, the GAIL library
incorrectly printed the following spurious error message when the
"GNOME_ACCESSIBILITY" environment variable was set to "0", which disables
GNOME accessibility support: "GTK Accessibility Module initialized". With
this update, this message no longer appears when the "GNOME_ACCESSIBILITY"
environment variable is set to "0". (BZ#506561)
All users of gail are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
