RHBA-2011:1277 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated kdebase package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The K Desktop Environment (KDE) is a graphical desktop environment for the X
Window System. The kdebase package includes core applications for the K Desktop
Environment.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Prior to this update, the directory /usr/share/man/overrides/, which includes

manual pages from the package man-pages-overrides, was not in the default
MANPATH. This updates adds the /usr/share/man/overrides/ directory to the
default MANPATH. (BZ#653970)

• Prior to this update, the kdebase package included the empty directories

/usr/lib/mozilla/ and /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/. This update corrects the
problem so that the kdebase package does not include these empty directories
anymore. (BZ#607781)

All users of kdebase are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
these bugs.
