7.308. chkconfig
Updated chkconfig packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The basic system utility chkconfig updates and queries runlevel information for system services.
Bug Fix
- BZ#1007372
- Previously, the readServices() function returned a wrong value when the /etc/init.d directory was not readable. As a consequence, a segmentation fault occurred. With this update, when the /etc/init.d directory is not readable, the readServices() function properly detects the situation and exits with a failure message. As a result, a segmentation fault no longer occurs.
Users of chkconfig are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
