Yellow Dog Linux Bugfix Announcement
------------------------------------
Package: initscripts
Issue Date: September 13, 2000
Update Date: September 13, 2000
Priority: low
Advisory ID: YDU-20000913-2
1. Topic:
A new initscripts package is available to fix a typo in
the network scripts.
2. Problem:
The initscripts package that shipped with Champion Server 1.2
contains a typo in the ifup-post script that caused a syntax
error when the ifup script was executed manually.
3. Solution:
a) Updating via yup...
We suggest that you use the Yellow Dog Update Program (yup)
to keep your system up-to-date. The following command will
automatically retrieve and install the fixed version of
initscripts onto your system:
yup update initscripts
b) Updating manually...
The update can also be retrieved manually from our ftp site
below along with the rpm command that should be used to install
the update.

examine the md5sum with the following command: rpm --checksig --nogpg filename
