Topic

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

Description

The gdbm packages provide a GNU database indexing library, which includes
routines that use extensible hashing. The library works in a similar way to
standard UNIX dbm routines.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • The previous release of gdbm introduced a regression in the way file handlers

were used. Consequently, gdbm failed to write to a database opened for reading
and writing. With this update, the file handlers have been fixed to use the
right flags, and as a result, gdbm works with such databases as expected.
(BZ#1180392)

Users of gdbm 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
https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258
