Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2002:171 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Stronghold: Updated package for update agent bug affecting Solaris on x86 2002-08-02 04:00:00 UTC

Description Gary Benson 2002-08-01 14:53:59 UTC 
Description of Problem:
The rpms on Intel Solaris platforms have an architecture of 'i86pc', whereas rpm
on that platform thinks it's architecture is 'i386' as a result of fixing
#57182.  This causes update-agent to fail (see attached example).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
update-agent-1.1-1

How Reproducible:
Always

Additional Information:
This problem can be worked around by saving the attached file as
<ServerRoot>/conf/update-agent.conf.
