Lvm2; Rhba-2009:1393: Bug-Fix And Enhancement Update - Red Hat ENTERPRISE LINUX 5.4 - TECHNICAL NOTES Manual

• a bug in which ltrace would become unresponsive (i.e. "hang") while tracing a child process with the
'-f' option, which traces child processes as they are created by currently traced processes as a result
of the fork or clone system calls. To correct for this, ltrace now tests for the situation in which it fails
to attach to a newly-forked process, thus resolving the issue.
All users of ltrace are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which resolves these issues.
