Fixed In Version: devtoolset-2-gdb-7.6.1-44.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Bug 981520 feature got imported into DTS-2.1 due to the rebase (=Bug 1016721) of this package. Consequence: Bug 981520 used features (function iglob) not available on RHEL-5. Fix: Use function glob instead of iglob which is sufficient in this case. glob is available on RHEL-5. Result: Bug 981520 feature is compatible even with RHEL-5. As Bug 981520 was not requested for DTS from a customer and this compatibility problem was not present in DTS-2.0 I do not think this Bug should be mentioned in the errata text.
