B.6. chkconfig

Updated chkconfig packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Extended Update Support.
The basic system utility chkconfig updates and queries runlevel information for system services.
Bug Fixes
BZ#797840
When installing multiple Linux Standard Base (LSB) services which only had LSB headers, the stop priority of the related LSB init scripts could have been miscalculated and set to "-1". With this update, the LSB init script ordering mechanism has been fixed, and the stop priority of the LSB init scripts is now set correctly.
BZ#797839
When an LSB init script requiring the "$local_fs" facility was installed with the "install_initd" command, the installation of the script could fail under certain circumstances. With this update, the underlying code has been modified to ignore this requirement because the "$local_fs" facility is always implicitly provided. LSB init scripts with requirements on "$local_fs" are now installed correctly.
All users of chkconfig are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
