An update that has one fix can now be installed.

Description:

This update for pdsh fixes the following issues:

  • Define %%make_build for all products that support it.

  • Update to version pdsh-2.34 (2020-01-07) (bsc#1167704)

  • Fix for output corruption with no newlines
  • pipecmd: fix result check error handling
  • slurm: workaround slurm export of internal List interfaces
  • readline: add application name as argv[0]

  • Fix errors from lgtm.com scan

  • Change 'typedef List' to 'typedef xList'. Since SLURM exposes a type List in its public API without proper namespacing we need to change this type in pdsh. To remain compatible with older versions of SLURM whose type List was identical to pdsh's we need to rename not only the struct.
