Synopsis
New package: libassuan
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new package, libassuan, is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
libassuan is a small library that implements the Assuan protocol. The
protocol, which provides a server and client interface, is used for
Inter-process Communication (IPC) between newer GNU Privacy Guard (gnupg2)
components.
This new package is required by the new gnupg2 utility. GnuPG 2.0 is a
newer version of GnuPG, a tool for secure communication and data storage.
GnuPG 2.0 derives from a different design philosophy and includes
additional support for S/MIME. (BZ#484192)
The package also addresses the following pre-release bug:
- a multilib conflict in the libassuan-1.0.4-4.el5 package is now resolved.
(BZ#502677)
Users of gnupg2 are advised to upgrade to these updated libassuan packages,
which resolve these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
