Note the apparent disagreement between update and check-update about what will actually be done (and no nothing has changed on the repositories in the mean-time, I've rerun it and cleared the yum cache and the problem persists).
Is check-update using different logic than update?
Yes, it does. checkupdate only checks updates based on the repositoty
updates does depsolving, that handles the obsoleting you are seeing. In most cases you will see the same result but in this case the
perl-TermReadKey 2.30-3 -> 2.30-8 update detected by yum checkupdate
is overruled by the perl-Term-ReadKey obsoleting perl-TermReadKey when doing the 'yum update'
Hello, The 'problem' should be fixed now: i deleted the perl-Term-ReadKey rpms some days ago when i received almost the same error report :) They're obsoleted by the perl-TermReadKey package. kind regards, Dries
