RHEA-2017:1013 - Product Enhancement Advisory
Synopsis
ovirt-guest-agent bug fix and enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Topic
Updated ovirt-guest-agent packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available.
Description
The ovirt-guest-agent allows the Red Hat Virtualization Manager to receive internal guest events and retrieve information such as the IP address and list of installed applications from the guest. Additionally the guest agent allows the Manager to execute specific commands, such as shut down or reboot, on guest virtual machines.
Changes to the ovirt-guest-agent component:
- File conflicts, as a result of package renaming, caused direct upgrades of debuginfo from version 1.0.12 and earlier to a later version to fail due to duplicate files in the same location.
The workaround for this problem is to manually uninstall the previous version of the debuginfo package before an installation or upgrade of the newer ovirt-guest-agent packages, such as:
# yum remove rhevm-guest-agent-debuginfo
This workaround does not introduce any limitations and is simple to execute for users of the debuginfo packages. (BZ#1442254)
