Topic

Updated chkconfig packages that fix multiple bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The basic system utility chkconfig updates and queries runlevel information for
system services.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • When installing multiple Linux Standard Base (LSB) services which only had LSB

headers, the stop priority of the related LSB init scripts could have been
miscalculated and set to "-1". With this update, the LSB init script ordering
mechanism has been fixed, and the stop priority of the LSB init scripts is now
set correctly. (BZ#696305)

  • When an LSB init script requiring the "$local_fs" facility was installed with

the "install_initd" command, the installation of the script could fail under
certain circumstances. With this update, the underlying code has been modified
to ignore this requirement because the "$local_fs" facility is always implicitly
provided. LSB init scripts with requirements on "$local_fs" are now installed
correctly. (BZ#706854)

  • If an LSB init script contained "Required-Start" dependencies, but the LSB

service installed was not configured to start in any runlevel, the dependencies
could have been applied incorrectly. Consequently, the installation of the LSB
service failed silently. With this update, chkconfig no longer strictly enforces
"Required-Start" dependencies for installation if the service is not configured
to start in any runlevel. LSB services are now installed as expected in this
scenario. (BZ#771454)

  • Previously, chkconfig did not handle dependencies between LSB init scripts

correctly. Therefore, if an LSB service was enabled, LSB services that were
depending on it could have been set up incorrectly. With this update, chkconfig
has been modified to determine dependencies properly, and dependent LSB services
are now set up as expected in this scenario. (BZ#771741)

All users of chkconfig are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix these bugs.

Solution

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

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
