-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-1027 2012-01-30 20:18:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : picocom Product : Fedora 16 Version : 1.6 Release : 4.fc16 URL : http://code.google.com/p/picocom/ Summary : Minimal serial communications program Description : As its name suggests, [picocom] is a minimal dumb-terminal emulation program. It is, in principle, very much like minicom, only it's "pico" instead of "mini"! It was designed to serve as a simple, manual, modem configuration, testing, and debugging tool. It has also served (quite well) as a low-tech "terminal-window" to allow operator intervention in PPP connection scripts (something like the ms-windows "open terminal window before / after dialing" feature). It could also prove useful in many other similar tasks. It is ideal for embedded systems since its memory footprint is minimal (less than 20K, when stripped). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix locking issues. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sun Jan 29 2012 Scott Tsai <[email protected]> 1.6-4 - Create subdirectories for lockfiles under /run/lock/picocom/ (RHBZ 732360) * Sat Jan 14 2012 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 1.6-3 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_17_Mass_Rebuild -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #732360 - picocom should use different locking because of /var/lock permissions https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=732360 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
