Topic
An updated pykickstart package that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat

Description
The pykickstart package contains a python library for manipulating kickstart
files.
This updated pykickstart package fixes the following bug:
- When validating the syntax of a kickstart file in certain locales, the
ksvalidator tool terminated with a traceback if the kickstart file contained any
deprecated syntax. This has been fixed: ksvalidator terminates no longer and
prints a warning message that the kickstart file contains a deprecated syntax.

All users of pykickstart are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this bug.
