Name        : os-prober
Product     : Fedora 19
Version     : 1.58
Release     : 3.fc19
URL         : http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/os-prober/
Summary     : Probes disks on the system for installed operating systems
Description :
This package detects other OSes available on a system and outputs the results
in a generic machine-readable format. Support for new OSes and Linux
distributions can be added easily.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update reverts the 'fix' to UEFI OS detection from 1.58-2.fc19 temporarily. That fix requires a change to grub2 which has not yet been done: providing it without the grub2 fix makes the situation worse rather than better. When the associated fix in grub2 is available, we will re-apply the os-prober patch and update grub2 and os-prober together.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Tue Jul  2 2013 Adam Williamson <awilliam at redhat.com> - 1.58-3
- revert factored-logger-efi-fix.patch until grub2 is updated to match
* Tue Jun 18 2013 Hedayat Vatankhah <hedayat.fwd+rpmchlog at gmail.com> - 1.58-2
- Fix a bug in EFI detection because of redirecting result output
