Updated rhn-client-tools packages that fix several bugs and add enhancements are now available.

(BZ#216808
)
* fix for a problem where a package profile uploaded to RHN or RHN Satellite during system
registration was incomplete. (BZ #489901,
1821
BZ#509265
BZ#510798
,
* require recent version of hal to be able to properly retrieve all dmi related information during system
registration.
(BZ#494679
* fix for a problem where dbus and hal services were not running at the end of new system
provisioning making it impossible for system registration to RHN or RHN Satellite. Without these
services running, registration code was unable to correctly detect a virtualization guest, resulting in
the provisioned virtualized system consuming a physical system entitlement. The fix for the problem
contains a new method of detecting a virtualizaton guest when dbus and hal services are not running.
1825
(BZ#495680
)
* do not limit the output from rhnreg_ks utility only to a console. This makes it possible for redirection
of the output from rhnreg_ks to a file or a pipe.
* fix typo error in up2date manual page.
* in network setups where the system is getting a hostname from a DHCP server even though its
hostname does not have a valid DNS record, register the system with its hostname.
* when registering system to RHN or RHN Satellite using firstboot interface, correctly populate
configuration values in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date.
