5.146. libevent
Updated libevent packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function when a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout has been reached.
Bug Fix
- BZ#658051
- Prior to this update, several multilib files in the optional repositories could cause conflicts. As a consequence, these files could not use both a primary and a secondary architecture. This update modifies the underlying source code so that no more multilib file conflicts occur.
All users of libevent or applications that require the libevent library are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
