An update that has one fix can now be installed.

Description:

This update for conman fixes the following issues:

  • Allowed IPMI defaults to be overridden via libipmiconsole.conf.
  • Updated recognized strings for IPMI workaround-flags. (FATE#326641)
  • Make sure conmand connects to a newly created UNIX socket with minimal delay. The implementation uses inotify, however this triggers when the other side bind()s to the socket, however a connection is not possible until the other side calls listen(). Thus if the connection fails, reset the poll() timeout to return to connect() as soon as possible (bsc#1101647).
