Installing this patch

  1. Log in as root (or with administrator privileges on Windows).
  2. On Debian 3.1 hosts, set up your environment by typing: 
    source /etc/profile
  3. Download the patch-640-1521-av-sync.tar archive to your host environment.
  4. On Windows hosts, run cmd.exe.
  5. Use the applypatch utility to install the patch:
    • On Linux, if you use sudo (as would be the case on Ubuntu), you must specify the -E option to preserve the environment. In this case, the PATH environment variable is set to a safe one for security reasons, so you need to specify the full path to the utility: 
      sudo -E $QNX_HOST/usr/bin/applypatch patch-640-1521-av-sync.tar
    • On other hosts, type: 
      applypatch patch-640-1521-av-sync.tar

    For more information about applypatch, see its entry in the Neutrino Utilities Reference.
