The xerces crash is still not fixed either: Boy this starts to get boring...

# rpm -q dell-system-update
dell-system-update-1.1-15.09.00.x86_64
# echo $LANG

# dsu
terminate called after throwing an instance of

Getting System Inventory...
^C

Also, notice how the first invocation of "dsu" without any option
erroneously just displaythe usage information instead of running in
interactive mode?

And the libs are still installed in /usr/local:

# rpm -ql dell-system-update
/usr/local/lib/dsulib/libdcmkit.so
/usr/local/lib/dsulib/libdsmbase.so
/usr/local/lib/dsulib/libdsmxml.so
/usr/local/lib/dsulib/libxerces-c-3.1.so
/usr/sbin/dsu

It's been at least 3 versions that those problems have been reported.
It really feels like we've all been writing to /dev/null...
