   An update that has three recommended fixes can now be
   installed. It includes one version update.

Description:


   This update fixes the following issues:

   *

   fixed getSingleInstSourceSatSolvable() instead of
   relying on the suffix of a file it's better to actually
   check if it's compressed or non compressed data. Due to
   redirections and symlinks it might happen that a file name
   e.g 'packages' is resolved into 'packages.en.gz'. kiwi
   downloaded the file and failed to check if it's a
   compressed file (bnc #822247)

   *

   fixed fetchFile function. The variable $imageBlkSize
   is not initialized, so it is better to use $chunk

   *

   if a targetdevice is used instead of a loop we need
   to wait for udev to finish the event loop in the same way
   as it is done in bindDiskPartitions() when binding the
   partitions of a loop device (bnc #819772)

   *

   netboot: fixed setup of swap devices in
   $imageSwapDevice. If the partition table stays untouched
   the variable was not set which caused a broken fstab entry
   for swap. This patch makes sure the swap device variable is
   set in any case.

   *

   fixed SUSE product creation if specified MAIN_PRODUCT
   does not match the product name. In this case the
   collection of products is skipped with a warning message

   *

   netboot: The sum2 variable in the suse-linuxrc
   download code conflicts with the same variable set in the
   updateNeeded function Because of that the check for the
   first cycle in the download loop did not work in all cases.

   *

   fixed setupBootLoaderGrub to write the udev device
   name into /boot/grub/device.map instead of the UNIX kernel
   device name (bnc #813216)

   *

   make hybrid iso call for products non-fatal
