Fedora Core 4: mgetty Update 1.1.33 Moderate: Fax Handling Fix

Updated package.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-643 2005-07-27 ---------------------------------------------------------------------Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : mgetty Version : 1.1.33 Release : 3_FC4 Summary : A getty replacement for use with data and fax modems. Description : The mgetty package contains a "smart" getty which allows logins over a serial line (i.e., through a modem). If you are using a Class 2 or 2.0 modem, mgetty can receive faxes. If you also need to send faxes, you need to install the sendfax program. If you plan to dial in to your system using a modem, you should install the mgetty package. If you want to send faxes using mgetty and your modem, you need to install the mgetty-sendfax program. If you need a viewer for faxes, you also need to install the mgetty-viewfax package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------* Fri Jul 22 2005 Jason Vas Dias 1.1.31-10 - fix bug 162174: prevent uninterruptable hang on exit() when direct line disconnected (kernel bug 164002) do tcflush(1,TCOFLUSH) before exit() in sig_goodbye() block signals before entering syslog() workaround build system 'buffer overflow checks' bug: use memcpy instead of sprintf in record.c, line 53 ---------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be downloaded from: 5924a1a7a9f7ef2e122c3ee5dd4d6fb5 SRPMS/mgetty-1.1.33-3_FC4.src.rpm c4007c383d8ad6f30d2dfb50df7b9f75 ppc/mgetty-1.1.33-3_FC4.ppc.rpm f4853b404588fb81a375da91165188dd ppc/mgetty-sendfax-1.1.33-3_FC4.ppc.rpm af48c65d4fde205c2fdc41be27b6f9c8 ppc/mgetty-voice-1.1.33-3_FC4.ppc.rpm 62353a742ac4a8e5e7796278847b0b3b ppc/mgetty-viewfax-1.1.33-3_FC4.ppc.rpm 4cc04819e88026b69e8588fc2e656a2e ppc/debug/mgetty-debuginfo-1.1.33-3_FC4.ppc.rpm 7162bdc66c6841704ed96a27e2f67e6a x86_64/mgetty-1.1.33-3_FC4.x86_64.rpm 6e7b915e0f8fdbd6dc1a4a8e4baac4b7 x86_64/mgetty-sendfax-1.1.33-3_FC4.x86_64.rpm ee213000325f49631fcffd9af828d5da x86_64/mgetty-voice-1.1.33-3_FC4.x86_64.rpm 9d07b7647b216b9c8664d73313d3e7e2 x86_64/mgetty-viewfax-1.1.33-3_FC4.x86_64.rpm 7d2f137e56779554cd59203646ba71b8 x86_64/debug/mgetty-debuginfo-1.1.33-3_FC4.x86_64.rpm 8e099195c1ec4b8309ae134ffc6342a4 i386/mgetty-1.1.33-3_FC4.i386.rpm a3683e93a54975d071a852fe7cfb33f1 i386/mgetty-sendfax-1.1.33-3_FC4.i386.rpm 9de213053785c30bff24c7173927f8c2 i386/mgetty-voice-1.1.33-3_FC4.i386.rpm 60919ec7396b734ffff0acb79b5c7dbe i386/mgetty-viewfax-1.1.33-3_FC4.i386.rpm f06ecae117bad7a69a0cdbc0093043d2 i386/debug/mgetty-debuginfo-1.1.33-3_FC4.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. -----------------------------------------------------------------------fedora-announce-list mailing list This email address is being protected from spambots.
