An update that has one fix can now be installed.
Description:
This update for kernel-livepatch-tools fixes the following issue:
- Introduce a controlled live patch deployment to solve an issue with the transactional server role (bsc#1187780)
- The deployment mode is defined in '/etc/sysconfig/livepatching'. The valid settings are 'always', 'never' and 'auto' with 'auto' as default. This change will preserve the immutability of the system in the transactional server role that skips the patch loading in transactional updates.
