RHBA-2009:0378 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated jadetex package that fixes several bugs is now available.

Description

The jadetex package contains high-level TeX macros which can be used to
produce DVI, PostScript and/or Portable Document Format (PDF) output.

This updated jadetex package includes fixes for the following bugs:

• several jadetex files which were installed in the /usr/share/texmf/web2c/

directory had the wrong SELinux context. This updated package corrects the
SELinux context of these files.

• previously, installing the jadetex package led to the creation of two

unnecessary log files that were not owned by the package in the
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/ directory. This updated package no longer creates
these log files, thus resolving the issue.

All users of jadetex are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
