Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated system-config-lvm package that fixes a bug is now available.
Description
The system-config-lvm package contains a utility for configuring logical
volumes via a graphical user interface.
This updated package fixes the following bug:
- in several non-English locales, clicking the Create New Logical Volume
button in the Logical Volume Management GUI (system-config-lvm) caused a
python error and did not present a Create New Logical Volume window as
expected. This made it impossible to use system-config-lvm to create new
logical volumes.
The Create New Logical Volume window includes a Filesystem combo box pop-up
menu which has 'None' selected and displayed by default. The error above
occurred on systems set to any locale which required non-ASCII characters
to present the translated equivalent of the English 'None'. This includes
locales such as Japanese (where the problem was reported in the field),
Serbian and Slovak. With this update, the combo box pop-up menu has been
corrected to enable the display of any UTF-8 character. In the affected
locales the Create New Logical Volume window now appears and works as
expected. (BZ#537022)
All system-config-lvm users are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which resolves this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
