1. Topic:

An updated redhat-lsb package is now available with support for Linux
Standard Base (LSB) 1.2.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386

3. Problem description:

The redhat-lsb package shipped in Red Hat Linux 7.3 was intended for use
with LSB 1.1. With the release of LSB 1.2, an update
is required to the lsb_release program to report the new version.

See <a href="http://www.linuxbase.org/">http://www.linuxbase.org/</a> for
more information on the Linux Standard
Base project.

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.0

5. RPMs required:

Red Hat Linux 7.3:

SRPMS:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.3/en/os/SRPMS/redhat-lsb-1.2.0-1.src.rpm

i386:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.3/en/os/i386/redhat-lsb-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm



6. Verification:

MD5 sum                          Package Name
