Topic

Updated wdaemon packages that fix one bug and add one enhancement are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The wdaemon packages contain a daemon to wrap input driver hotplugging in the
X.Org implementation of the X Window System server. The wdaemon packages emulate
virtual input devices to avoid otherwise non-persistent configuration of Wacom
tablets to persist across device removals.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Due to the broken %postun scriptlet, an attempt to uninstall wdaemon caused an

error message to appear. This error message also occurred during the wdaemon
update because the old package is removed during the update. Consequently, the
wdaemon service was not restarted after the update. The %postun scriptlet has
been fixed and wdaemon works as expected in this situation. (BZ#852332)

In addition, this update adds the following enhancement:

  • This enhancement adds support for emulation of the Wacom Intuos5 tablet

series. (BZ#838752)

All users of wdaemon are advised to upgrade to these updated packages which fix
this bug and add this enhancement.

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
