Synopsis
pirut bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated pirut package that fixes various bugs is now available.
Description
The pirut graphical package manager front end provides a set of graphical
tools for managing software.
This updated pirut package includes fixes for the following bugs:
- removing a package with pirut when no repositories were configured caused
pirut to exit with a Python traceback. With this update, the application
does not exit with a traceback when a package is removed in the absence of
any configured repositories. (BZ#444697)
- occasionally, a failed assertion check related to the progress bar, and
specifically to the gtk_progress_set_percentage() function, caused the
pirut package manager to exit with a traceback. This update ensures that
this assertion no longer fails, thus resolving the problem. (BZ#459489)
- after upgrading to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 release, pirut began
showing the epoch number as the first characters in the package group
details list. With this update, package lists are once again sorted
correctly. (BZ#478834)
- the "pup" graphical package manager application used an incorrectly-sized
icon. (BZ#436193)
All users of pirut are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
