Topic
An updated rhnlib package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The rhnlib package consists of a collection of Python modules used by the Red
Hat Network (RHN) software.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Prior to this update, programs that used rhnlib were unable to connect to RHN
or RHN Satellite using an IPv6 address. With this update, the underlying source
code has been modified to correct this error, and rhnlib-based applications are
now able to connect to RHN or RHN Satellite without any problems with IPv6
address resolution. (BZ#665026)
All users of rhnlib are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
this bug.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
