Name : strace
Product : Fedora 10
Version : 4.5.19
Release : 1.fc10

Summary : Tracks and displays system calls associated with a running process
Description :
The strace program intercepts and records the system calls called and
received by a running process. Strace can print a record of each
system call, its arguments and its return value. Strace is useful for
diagnosing problems and debugging, as well as for instructional
purposes.
Install strace if you need a tool to track the system calls made and
received by a process.

This update fixes numerous bugs, adds support for some newer system calls, and
