--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-255 2005-03-23 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : evolution Version : 2.0.4 Release : 2 Summary : GNOME's next-generation groupware suite Description : Evolution is the GNOME mailer, calendar, contact manager and communications tool. The tools which make up Evolution will be tightly integrated with one another and act as a seamless personal information-management tool. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: There were several security flaws found in the mozilla package, which evolution depends on. Users of evolution are advised to upgrade to this updated package which has been rebuilt against a later version of mozilla which is not vulnerable to these flaws. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Wed Mar 23 2005 David Malcolm <dmalcolm@redhat.com> - 2.0.4-2 - Removed explicit run-time spec-file requirement on mozilla. The Mozilla NSS API/ABI stabilised by version 1.7.3 The libraries are always located in the libdir However, the headers are in /usr/include/mozilla-1.7.6 and so they move each time the mozilla version changes. So we no longer have an explicit mozilla run-time requirement in the specfile; a requirement on the appropriate NSS and NSPR .so files is automagically generated on build. We have an explicit, exact build-time version, so that we can find the headers (without invoking an RPM query from the spec file; to do so is considered bad practice) - Introduced mozilla_build_version, to replace mozilla_version (now 1.7.6) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/u... 7631fea197a1ccd056b1823be75a023c SRPMS/evolution-2.0.4-2.src.rpm 14c411da1ca80dff7aa6a625cc2c5365 x86_64/evolution-2.0.4-2.x86_64.rpm 4fc5867087714e7a59f5e1da1cc71e1d x86_64/evolution-devel-2.0.4-2.x86_64.rpm 0a17830e4f2b39aed9e7883c51421085 x86_64/debug/evolution-debuginfo-2.0.4-2.x86_64.rpm 35f623a4203d3ca943e423c6607e69b8 i386/evolution-2.0.4-2.i386.rpm a940f9dd3baf9f54f91110e3488695f5 i386/evolution-devel-2.0.4-2.i386.rpm fe42b6729dd452612e70bc941cba7226 i386/debug/evolution-debuginfo-2.0.4-2.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 fedora-announce-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list
