I juste updated the repo and uninstalled some redhat packages :
rpm -e rhnlib rhn-client-tools rhn-setup yum-rhn-plugin rhn-check rhnsd
redhat-indexhtml redhat-lsb
rpm -e --nodeps redhat-release-server-6Server
rpm -hiv sl-release-6.0-6.0.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm -e --nodeps redhat-logos
rpm -hiv redhat-logos-60.0.14-1.sl6.1.noarch.rpm
I did a test for yum reinstall \*, and saw that 565 out of the 623 packages
were to be re-installed, so I didn't want to get into problems with a remote
server, I left it that way. I will do a reinstall on a server I got at the
office, and I'll report back.
