1.129. rpm

Updated rpm packages that fix several bugs and add an enhancement are now available.

The RPM Package Manager (RPM) is a command line driven package management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying, querying, and updating software packages.

These updated rpm packages provide fixes for the following bugs:

* A memory leak in the communication between RPM and the Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) subsystem could have caused extensive memory consumption. In reported cases, this issue was triggered by running rhn_check when errata were scheduled to be applied. ( BZ#627630)

* When installing the libgnome package, an error was displayed:

gconftool-2: command not found

This was due to a bug in dependency ordering on multilib systems, which caused failures of package scriptlets. With this update, the package dependencies are fixed and the problem no longer occurs. ( BZ#641892)

In addition, these updated rpm packages provide the following enhancement:

* RPM accepts GPG keys saved on Windows operating system with Windows native line endings. ( BZ#530212)

Users are advised to upgrade to these updated rpm packages, which resolve these issues and add this enhancement.
