---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

New raidtools packages that fix a dependency on /usr are available for Red
Hat Linux 7.2. Upgrading is recommended for users affected by
this problem.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386

3. Problem description:

Binaries in the raidtools package were dynamically linked against the popt
library, which is in /usr/lib. The fixed package statically links in popt.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.

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

54587 - raidtools-0.90-23 dynamic links to popt libs on /usr partition
55198 - boot fails when try to start /usr raid
55304 - /sbin/detect_multipath linked against /usr library

6. RPMs required:

i386:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.2/en/os/i386/raidtools-0.90-24.i386.rpm

7. Verification:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
f2d5783800b076e23e901395275e5008 7.2/en/os/SRPMS/raidtools-0.90-24.src.rpm

These packages are GPG signed by Red Hat, Inc. for security. Our key
is available at:
    http://www.redhat.com/about/contact/pgpkey.html

You can verify each package with the following command:
    rpm --checksig <filename>

If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
    rpm --checksig --nogpg <filename>
