Topic

An updated rds-tools package that fixes bugs and provides enhancements is now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The rds-tools package provides a set of support tools for the Reliable Datagram
Socket (RDS) protocol.

The rds-tools package has been upgraded to upstream version 2.0.4, which
provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.
(BZ#636908)

In addition, this update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the "rds-ping" command failed because the RDS protocol did not

automatically enable the available underlying transports. This update adds a
configuration file to the /etc/modprobe.d/ directory, and the transport modules
are now loaded automatically whenever the main RDS module is loaded. (BZ#643113)

Users are advised to upgrade to this updated rds-tools package, which fixes
these bugs and adds these enhancements.

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 the Red Hat
