Topic
Updated rng-utils packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The rng-utils package contains the random number generator user space utilities
such as the rng daemon.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, rng-utils did not support the Trusted Platform Module (TPM). This
update adds TPM rng support to use the random number generator inside the TPM.
(BZ#461716)
- Previously, the release number of the rng-utils package was missing. This
update resolves this issue and the release number is now available. (BZ#640725)
All users of rng-utils 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.
