RHBA-2012:1355 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
mlocate bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated mlocate packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise 6.
Description
The mlocate packages provide a locate/updatedb implementation. Mlocate keeps a
database of all existing files and allows you to look up files by name.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, the locate(1) manual page contained a misprint. This
update corrects the misprint. (BZ#690800)
- Prior to this update, the mlocate tool aborted the "updatedb" command if an
incorrect filesystem implementation returned a zero-length file name. As a
consequence, the locate database was not be updated. This update detects invalid
zero-length file names, warns about them, and continues to the locate database.
(BZ#699363)
All users of mlocate 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
