Description Joe Wright 2018-06-20 19:10:53 UTC

Description of problem:

Updating to RHEL 7.5, issue when relink Oracle EBS 12.1.3 binaries. Oracle Support found that the issue is caused by binutils -2.27-27.base.0.1.el7.x86_64. Per Oracle note 2392829.1, the workaround is to downgrade binutils package to binutils-2.25.1-32.base.el7_4.2.x86_64 or binutils-2.23.52.0.1-16.el7.x86_64. This workaround is effective

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
- binutils -2.27-27.base.0.1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
- not sure how to reproduce in house (Red Hat)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update to RHEL 7.5/binutils -2.27-27.base.0.1.el7.x86_64
2. relink oracle  EBS 12.1.3 binaries
3.

Hi Joe,

  This bug has already been reported:

  A fix has been applied to the RHEL 7.6 binutils, and it has
  also backported to RHEL 7.5 as a z-stream fix:
