Greetings Red Hat Partners,

Updated hwcert-client-1.6.5.2-20141028.el6 GA packages are now available 
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Hardware Certification.

The hwcert-client packages contain the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Hardware 
Certification Test Suite which verifies the compatibility of hardware 
devices. Each hwcert-client test run builds a results database for 
submission to the Red Hat Hardware Catalog as an XML file. hwcert-client 
replaces v7 and the Red Hat Hardware Test Suite (HTS) for certifying 
hardware for use with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

This update fixes the following bug:

* After upgrading a system with an hwcert server installed from Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux 6.5 to 6.6, including installing all available updates, 
the hwcert server failed to start and could no longer be used for 
network tests. This bug has been fixed, and network tests can now be run 
successfully after a system upgrade. (BZ#1156204)

Users of Hardware Certification Test Suite are advised to upgrade to 
these updated packages, which fix this bug.

The updated Red Hat Hardware Certification Test Suite packages are 
available in the following locations:
