    This update for s390-tools provides the following fixes:

    get activated at boot time. (bsc#966477)
    - Avoid dasdfmt failures due to a busy device. (bsc#937340)
    - Remove references to chzdev tool that was never implemented.
    - Fix zfcp_disk_configure script to use $_zfcp_scsi_id instead of the
    incorrect $_zfcp_target_id. (bsc#957168)
    - Added 59-prng.rules so that /dev/prandom will have permissions of 0444.

    generator. (bsc#965165)
