Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated python-urlgrabber package that fixes two bugs is now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The python-urlgrabber is a high-level cross-protocol url-grabber for python
supporting HTTP, FTP and file locations. Features include keepalive, byte
ranges, throttling, authentication, proxies and more.
This updated package provides fixes for the following bugs:
- previously, messages were truncated when downloading packages. As a result,
the lines were truncated so they didn't show the names of the packages that were
being downloaded. With this update, the complete package information is printed
when packages are being downloaded and this issue is resolved. (BZ#500912)
- previously, the python-urlgrabber could not handle the character '@' or '%40'
as login in username or password when authenticating. With this update, the
information for username and password is encoded correctly, username and
password fields are unquoted after splitting from the host portion, and this
issue is resolved. (BZ#576651)
All python-urlgrabber users are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which resolves these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
