RHBA-2011:1563 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated tog-pegasus packages that fix multiple bugs and add various enhancements
are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

OpenPegasus WBEM Services for Linux enable management solutions that deliver
increased control of enterprise resources. Web-Based Enterprise Management
(WBEM) is a platform and resource independent Distributed Management Task Force
(DMTF) standard that defines a common information model and communication
protocol for monitoring and controlling resources from diverse sources.

These updated packages upgrade tog-pegasus to the more recent upstream version
2.11.0, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous
packaged version. (BZ#633577)

This update also fixes the following bugs:

• Previously, tog-pegasus did not comply with Red Hat multilib policy. This

update moves the runtime libraries into the new tog-pegasus-libs subpackage.
Now, tog-pegasus is in complience with the multilib policy. (BZ#607722)

• Previously, binaries in tog-pegasus were stripped of their debuginfo files

during the build process. As a consequence, the debuginfo files were missing and
could prevent correct debugging of crashes. This update modifies the code and
binaries are no longer stripped of the debug information. (BZ#693389)

In addition, this update also adds the following enhancements:

• This update adds the external SLP and Privilege Separation options to provide

support for IBM Systems Director. (BZ#694513)

• This update adds OpenSLP support to tog-pegasus. (BZ#712525)

All users of tog-pegasus are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix these bugs and add these enhancements.
