Chapter 1. Package Updates
• NPort ID Virtualization (NPIV) presents one physical Fibre Channel adapter port to the SAN as
multiple WWNN/WWPN pairs. Anaconda now supports NPIV, which allows users on PowerPC
systems to install to a NPIV LUN.
• the Python executables that make up anaconda now all explicitly use the system Python (#! /
usr/bin/python instead of #! /usr/bin/env python). This ensures that anaconda functions
correctly when more than one Python stack is present on a system.
• anaconda now supports the Emulex OneConnect iSCSI network interface card.
• anaconda now supports PMC Sierra MaxRAID controller adapters.
• although users have been able to specify package groups for installation in kickstart files, using the
@ prefix, it was not possible to exclude package groups from installation, only individual packages.
Anaconda now supports excluding package groups with the -@ prefix
• anaconda now loads the xorg-x11-qxl-drv and xorg-x11-ast-drv X11 video drivers as required.
xorg-x11-qxl-drv supports the qemu QXL video accelerator when installing Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5 as a guest operating system. xorg-x11-ast-drv supports ASPEED Technologies video
hardware.

1.5. apr-util
1.5.1. RHEA-2010:0310: enhancement update
Updated apr-util packages that add support for MySQL are now available.
apr-util is a utility library used with the Apache Portable Runtime (APR). It aims to provide a free library
of C data structures and routines. This library contains additional utility interfaces for APR; including
support for XML, LDAP, database interfaces, URI parsing, and more.
In previous releases, the APR utility library DBD (database abstraction) interface did not include
support for MySQL databases. This update adds the MySQL driver to the DBD interface.
