-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-20213 2012-12-12 04:09:42 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : ltrace Product : Fedora 17 Version : 0.7.2 Release : 1.fc17 URL : http://ltrace.alioth.debian.org/ Summary : Tracks runtime library calls from dynamically linked executables Description : Ltrace is a debugging program which runs a specified command until the command exits. While the command is executing, ltrace intercepts and records both the dynamic library calls called by the executed process and the signals received by the executed process. Ltrace can also intercept and print system calls executed by the process. You should install ltrace if you need a sysadmin tool for tracking the execution of processes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: 0.7.* was released relatively recently and constitutes a major update. It brings important improvements in handling parameter passing conventions, which means that functions of traced processes are more likely to have correct parameters. It is not purely a bugfix release, but it's nonetheless stable and reliable. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Dec 10 2012 Petr Machata <[email protected]> - 0.7.2-1 - Upstream 0.7.2 - Drop all the patches * Sat Nov 10 2012 Petr Machata <[email protected]> - 0.7.0-1 - Upstream 0.7.0 - Drop all the patches - Upstream patch for missing sysdeps/linux-gnu/ppc/insn.h (ltrace-0.7.0-ppc-insn.h.patch) - Upstream patch for installing ltrace.conf.5 to man5 (ltrace-0.7.0-man5.patch) * Mon Oct 1 2012 Petr Machata <[email protected]> - 0.6.0-19 - Upstream patch for ia64 parameter passing (ltrace-0.6.0-abi-ia64.patch) - Upstream fix for a bug in computation of time spent in a syscall (ltrace-0.6.0-syscall-time.patch) - Upstream fix for a bug in passing struct(float,struct(float,float)) on x86_64 (ltrace-0.6.0-x86_64-flatten.patch) - Upstream patch for support of -l option (ltrace-0.6.0-dash-l.patch) - Several more upstream patches with random cleanups.
