Fedora Core 4 Update: flex-2.5.4a-36.fc4
by Petr Machata
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2006-047
2006-01-20
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : flex
Version : 2.5.4a
Release : 36.fc4
Summary : A tool for creating scanners (text pattern recognizers).
Description :
The flex program generates scanners. Scanners are programs which can
recognize lexical patterns in text. Flex takes pairs of regular
expressions and C code as input and generates a C source file as
output. The output file is compiled and linked with a library to
produce an executable. The executable searches through its input for
occurrences of the regular expressions. When a match is found, it
executes the corresponding C code. Flex was designed to work with
both Yacc and Bison, and is used by many programs as part of their
build process.
You should install flex if you are going to use your system for
application development.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Wed Jan 18 2006 Petr Machata <pmachata(a)redhat.com> 2.5.4a-36.fc4

Fedora Core 4 Update: autofs-4.1.4-15
by Ian Kent
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2006-044
2006-01-18
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : autofs
Version : 4.1.4
Release : 15
Summary : A tool for automatically mounting and unmounting filesystems.
Description :
autofs is a daemon which automatically mounts filesystems when you use
them, and unmounts them later when you are not using them. This can
include network filesystems, CD-ROMs, floppies, and so forth.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Update autofs with latest stable patches.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Tue Jan 17 2006 Ian Kent <ikent(a)redhat.com> - 1:4.1.4-15
- Sync patches with rawhide.
- Replace deferred syslog patch with reentrant syslog patch.
- Update copyright declaration for reentrant-syslog source.
- Replace check-is-multi with more general multi-parse-fix.
- Add fix for premature return when waiting for lock file.
- Add patch for configure option to disable locking during mount.
But don't disable locking by default.
- Add ability to handle automount schema used in Sun directory server.
- Quell compiler warning about getsockopt parameter.
- Quell compiler warning about yp_order parameter.
* Wed May 4 2005 Jeff Moyer <jmoyer(a)redhat.com> - 1:4.1.4-8
- Add in the deferred syslog patch. This fixes a hung automounter issue
related to unsafe calls to syslog in signal handler context.
* Tue May 3 2005 Jeff Moyer <jmoyer(a)redhat.com> - 1:4.1.4-7
- I reversed the checking for multimount entries, breaking those configs!
This update puts the code back the way it was before I broke it.
* Tue Apr 26 2005 Jeff Moyer <jmoyer(a)redhat.com> - 1:4.1.4-6
- Fix a race between mounting a share and updating the cache in the parent
process. If the mount completed first, the parent would not expire the
stale entry, leaving it first on the list. This causes map updates to not
be recognized (well, worse, they are recognized after the first expire, but
not subsequent ones). Fixes a regression, bug #137026 (rhel3 bug).

Fedora Core 4 Update: foomatic-3.0.2-19.2
by Tim Waugh
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-017
2006-01-17
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : foomatic
Version : 3.0.2
Release : 19.2
Summary : Foomatic printer database.
Description :
Foomatic is a comprehensive, spooler-independent database of printers,
printer drivers, and driver descriptions. It contains utilities to
generate driver description files and printer queues for CUPS, LPD,
LPRng, and PDQ using the database. There is also the possibility to
read the PJL options out of PJL-capable laser printers and take them
into account at the driver description file generation.
There are spooler-independent command line interfaces to manipulate
queues (foomatic-configure) and to print files/manipulate jobs
(foomatic printjob).
The site http://www.linuxprinting.org/ is based on this database.
