Description Neal Gompa 2015-10-27 15:24:18 CET
Advisory
========================================

Updated deltarpm with patches from Fedora backported from Cauldron. 

The update address the following issues:

* If applydeltarpm failed, a new request is made. However, it failed in unexpected ways if it was already in the middle of working on another apply request.

* If the deltarpm module for python failed to allocate memory, it would crash instead of gracefully failing with an error.

* An off-by-one error in DeltaRPM generation would cause a segmentation fault in rare circumstances.

* The output log could not be watched properly with live monitors (such as "tail -f").

Updated packages in core/updates_testing
========================================

python-deltarpm-3.6-11.mga5

I've confirmed that the updated packages upgrade with no issues (Mageia 5 i586).

The rpmdiffs from madb look good.  I'd say this is a go.
