hi,
i know c6 it is not released, but centos-release packages was not upgraded when doing upgrade from 5.6 to 6.0 (using upgradeany option).
[root@server Packages]# rpm -Uvh centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64.rpm warning: centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID c105b9de: NOKEY Preparing... ########################################### [100%] package centos-release-10:5-6.el5.centos.1.x86_64 (which is newer than centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64) is already installed
i assume this was not tested because this upgrade method is not supported by upstream vendor.
even though seems to be a serious bug:-( btw. not supported but working most of the cases.
Why is this a bug? Afaik an epoch of 10 (the C5 rpm) trumps an epoch of 0 (the C6 rpm). 10 > 0 so do not upgrade.
and that's the problem...
