   An update that has four recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:



   This update brings the genders package to the HPC module (FATE#324149
   bsc#1085090), adding support for it in pdsh (FATE#325288 bsc#1085091), and
   includes the following fixes:

   Changes in pdsh:

   - Since different host-list plugins have conflicting options and 'the
     first one wins' policy is not well defined, package all of them
     separately and make ones with identical
     options conflict. (bsc#1081673)
   - Put the SLURM plugin into separate package. (FATE#325289)

   Changes in genders:

   - Added new package genders-base for the configuration file common to the
     libraries. (bsc#1081479)

     Genders is a static cluster configuration database used for cluster
   configuration management.  It is used by a variety of tools and scripts
   for management of large clusters.  The genders database is typically
   replicated on every node of the cluster. It describes the layout and
   configuration of the cluster so that tools and scripts can sense the
   variations of cluster nodes. By abstracting this information into a plain
   text file, it becomes possible to change the configuration of a cluster by
   modifying only one file.
