Trustix Secure Linux Bugfix Advisory #2005-0046
Package names: am-utils, apache-ant, devlabel, distcache, diffstat,
dvd+rw-tools, enscript, initscripts, kernel, mrtg,
net-tools, rpm
Summary: Various bug fixes
Date: 2005-09-09
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
Trustix Secure Linux 3.0
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
am-utils
Am-utils includes an updated version of Amd, the popular BSD automounter.
An automounter is a program which maintains a cache of mounted filesystems.
Filesystems are mounted when they are first referenced by the user and
unmounted after a certain period of inactivity. Amd supports a variety of
filesystems, including NFS, UFS, CD-ROMS and local drives.
apache-ant
Ant is a Java based build tool. In theory it is kind of like "make"
without makes wrinkles and with the full portability of pure java code.
Ant is different. Instead of a model where it is extended with shell-based
commands, Ant is extended using Java classes. Instead of writing shell
commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree
where various tasks get executed. Each task is run by an object that
implements a particular Task interface.
devlabel
Devlabel is a program which dynamically creates symbolic links to
disk/partition names. It uses the disk's and/or partition's unique
identifiers to keep the symlink pointed to the correct location even if
the underlying partition's name has changed.
distcache
The distcache package provides a variety of functionality for enabling
a network-based session caching system, primarily for (though not
restricted to) SSL/TLS session caching.
diffstat
The diff command compares files line by line. Diffstat reads the
output of the diff command and displays a histogram of the insertions,
deletions and modifications in each file. Diffstat is commonly used
to provide a summary of the changes in large, complex patch files.
dvd+rw-tools
DVD burning software
enscript
GNU enscript is a free replacement for Adobe's Enscript program. Enscript
converts ASCII files to PostScript(TM) and spools generated PostScript
output to the specified printer or saves it to a file. Enscript can be
extended to handle different output media and includes many options for
customizing printouts.
initscripts
The initscripts package contains the basic system scripts used to boot
your Trustix Secure Linux system, change runlevels, and shut the system
down cleanly. Initscripts also contains the scripts that activate and
deactivate most network interfaces.
kernel
The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
Trustix Secure Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic
functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation,
device input and output, etc.
mrtg
The Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) is a tool to monitor the traffic
load on network links. MRTG generates HTML pages containing PNG images
which provide a LIVE visual representation of this traffic.
net-tools
The net-tools package contains the basic tools needed for setting up
networking: ethers, route and others.
rpm
The RPM Package Manager is a powerful command line driven package
management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying,
querying, and updating software packages. Each software package consists
of an archive of files along with information about the package like its
version, a description, etc.
setup
The setup package contains a set of important system configuration and
setup files, such as passwd, group, and profile.
