MDVA-2009:108 : libx11

high Nessus Plugin ID 47929

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

Due to a interface change in version 1.2 of the xcb library, programs depending on libx11 would not be able to run without the proper version of that library. But libx11 package did not require this version explicitly allowing that this package to be installed with a wrong version of libxcb. This update fixes this issue.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
