RHBA-2013:0086 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
syslinux bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated syslinux packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux.
Description
The syslinux packages provide a utility, which is responsible for booting the
operating system kernel.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, the syslinux utility used an inappropriate timeout
value. As a consequence, the timeout took longer than expected. This update
modifies the underlying code to remove this limitation. Now, syslinux timeouts
work as expected. (BZ#471067)
- Prior to this update, the syslinux-perl package contained unresolved Perl
dependencies. As a consequence, syslinux-perl failed to build. This update
modifies the underlying code to resolve these dependencies. Now, syslinux-perl
builds as expected. (BZ#844250)
All users of syslinux are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix these bugs.
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 use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
