---------------------------------------------------------------------
                   Red Hat, Inc. Bug Fix Advisory

Synopsis:          Glibc bug fixes
Advisory ID:       RHBA-2000:079-03
Issue date:        2000-10-09
Updated on:        2000-10-09
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          glibc JDK xmms gethostbyname fscanf gethostid
Cross references:  N/A
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

This errata fixes a couple of bugs which have been found in the
GNU C library 2.1.92 packages.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.0 - i686, i386
Red Hat Linux 7.0J - i686, i386

3. Problem description:

JDK programs should no longer segfault on startup, xmms should no longer
segfault on exit, a compatibility bug with glibc 2.0.x should be fixed in
this release as well. ldconfig will be less verbose about stale symlinks
if you don't give it -v option (to match behaviour of standalone ldconfig
package). A couple of other bugs have been fixed, see bugzilla IDs
mentioned below and glibc ChangeLog for details).

4. Solution:

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filename]

where filename is the name of the RPM.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

6418 - sethostid fails
17019 - gethostbyname call SIGSEGVs
17145 - Mutex locks may be broken.
17267 - glibc 2.1.92 is not binary compatible with glibc 2.0
17723 - crypt.h and unistd.h have conflicting function declarations
17832 - multiple IP addresses in /etc/hosts (for one hostname) cause programs to access /etc/hosts via the usual library functions to segfault
17838 - xmms not closing properly
18049 - Sun's JDK 1.2.2 does not run
18316 - stdio problems with fscanf

6. RPMs required:
