RHBA-2013:1417 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated rhn-upgrade package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat
Satellite 5.6.

Description

Red Hat Satellite is a system management tool for Linux-based infrastructures.
It allows for the provisioning, remote management and monitoring of multiple
Linux deployments with a single, centralized tool.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Due to a bug in one of the Satellite upgrade helper scripts, the

satellite-upgrade-estimates script generated a traceback when running on
Satellite 5.5 under certain circumstances. A patch has been applied to correct
behavior of the satellite-upgrade-estimates script and upgrades from Satellite
5.5 using this script now proceed as expected without any traceback.
(BZ#1014986)

All Users of Red Hat Satellite are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which fixes this bug.
