Today's ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6_8.1 update causes evince to refuse to display any postscript file. Running evince from a terminal session, I see the errors: invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 ** (evince:1252): WARNING **: Error rendering thumbnail Downgrading to ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6 corrects the problem. Anyone else seeing this? -- Bob Nichols

I'm still not getting the firefox-38.1.1-1.el6.centos.x86_64.rpm that was announced yesterday (8 August) morning. I looked at several of the mirror sites I receive, and they all have the new firefox in their Packages directory, but their repodata is all a day older (7 August), so yum doesn't see the update. Example mirror: http://mirror.cs.uwp.edu/pub/centos/6.7/updates/x86_64/ -- Bob

I have a PCI sound card that I would like to assign to a VM, but when I try to do so the VM fails to start and displays this message: Error starting domain: Unable to read from monitor: Connection reset by peer Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 44, in cb_wrapper callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs) File

Fortunately, installing them from rpmforge didn't drag along any dependencies. -- Bob Nichols
