RHBA-2013:1239 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
scl-utils bug fix and enhancement update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated scl-utils packages that fix two bugs and add one enhancement are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The scl-utils packages provide a runtime utility and RPM packaging macros for
Software Collections. Software Collections allow users to concurrently install
multiple versions of the same component in the system and then enable a specific
version of the component by using the scl utility.
This update adds the scl-utils packages to Red Hat Software Collections 1.0.
(BZ#955570)
In addition, this update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, the scl utility incorrectly allowed the user to enable a
Software Collection more than once in the same environment, which could lead to
unexpected behavior. This update ensures that the "enable" scriptlet is executed
only if the selected Software Collection has not yet been enabled. As a result,
any attempts to enable a particular Software Collection multiple times in one
environment are now ignored. (BZ#964061)
- The scl-utils packages have been updated to ensure that the python27 packages
can be byte compiled without errors. (BZ#956289)
All users who require scl-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which fix these bugs and add this enhancement.
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
