Topic

Updated gzip packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.

Description

The gzip packages provide the GNU gzip data compression program.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • The O_NONBLOCK flag was recently added to the open() system call. As a

consequence gzip did not prevent opening of parity (PAR) and Ots File List (OFL)
files that are managed by the SGI Data Migration Facility (DMF). Processing of
such files resulted in gzip aborts or corrupted output files. With this update,
if an attempt to read a file with the O_NONBLOCK flag fails with the EAGAIN
error code, the file is re-read without O_NONBLOCK. The gzip utility no longer
aborts or produce corrupted output files in this situation. (BZ#963195).

Users of gzip are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.

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
