---------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : initscripts
Version     : 7.42.2                      
Release     : 1                  
Summary     : The inittab file and the /etc/init.d scripts.
Description :
The initscripts package contains the basic system scripts used to boot
your Red Hat system, change runlevels, and shut the system down
cleanly.  Initscripts also contains the scripts that activate and
deactivate most network interfaces.

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

New initscripts packages are available. These packages fix an issue
with the permissions when mounting /dev/pts, which fixes the use of
mesg or write, as well as eliminates some errors from pty helper programs.
It also fixes manipulation of xDSL and other interfaces where the nickname
does not match the device name, use of IPv6 with ISDN devices, and removes
an extraneous ethtool error message on devices that don't support ethtool.
