Topic

An updated xguest package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The xguest package sets up the xguest user which can be used as a temporary
account to switch to or as a kiosk user account. These accounts are disabled
unless SELinux is in enforcing mode.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Due to a bug in the dependency requirements for the preinstall scriptlet,

installing the xguest package failed because of a dependency problem. This
update adds the selinux-policy-targeted package to the dependency list, and
installing xguest now works as expected. (BZ#877016)

  • Previously, the xguest README file did not reflect the current state of the

defined xguest SELinux booleans in the SELinux policy. This update modifies the
README file to correctly document the current state of the aforementioned
booleans. (BZ#1081413)

Users of xguest are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
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
https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258
