1. Topic:

A new anonftp package is available for Red Hat Linux 7.1 to fix a problem
with the packages triggers. It is recommended that users of anonftp update
to the new package

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, i386, ia64

3. Problem description:

A problem existed in the triggers in the anonftp package that shipped with
Red Hat Linux 7.1; these triggers (which are used to copy in up-to-date
versions of glibc, fileutils, and other packages) could cause odd failures
on upgrades.

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.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

51648 - Warning in /tmp/upgrade.log
