Hello group,
I have a CentOS 5.5 server freshly installed.
When I do a yum updated package_name, I have referenced to 5.6. Why?
Here is an example:
yum update vsftpd --changelog Loaded plugins: changelog, fastestmirror, security addons/other | 192 B 00:00 base/other_db | 11 MB 00:50 extras/other_db | 442 kB 00:01 updates/other_db | 2.8 MB 00:11 http://centos.arcticnetwork.ca/*5.6*/updates/x86_64/repodata/other.sqlite.bz...: [Errno -1] Metadata file does not match checksum Trying other mirror. updates/other_db | 2.7 MB 00:22 Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * addons: mirror.science.uottawa.ca * base: mirror.science.uottawa.ca * extras: mirror.science.uottawa.ca * updates: mirror.science.uottawa.ca Skipping security plugin, no data Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies Skipping security plugin, no data --> Running transaction check ---> Package vsftpd.x86_64 0:2.0.5-16.el5_6.1 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution
