Topic

An updated upstart package that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The upstart package contains an event-based replacement for the /sbin/init
daemon that starts tasks and services during boot, stops them during shut down,
and supervises them while the system is running.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, console was not reset, when the user changed the runlevel.

Consequently, terminal flags, such as the "echo" flag, were not reset properly,
resulting in various problems. With this update, console is always reset to
default settings for the console owner, thus ensuring that a runlevel change no
longer causes problems in the console. (BZ#967554)

Users of upstart are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
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
