Hi,
The fact that apparently the last tigervnc update from upstream was missed triggered me to check for missing updates and packages in 6.3. Here are my results. Sorry for any false positives that might have crept in, but note that some of the 6_x updates actually are updates and not a parsing error. And perhaps an occasional false positive due to having to compare upstream SRPMS vs downstream RPMS.
CentOS: dmidecode-2.11-2.el6 RHEL63: dmidecode-2.11-2.el6_1 Yes, this is an update, despite the 6_1 confusion. Unless dmidecode-2.11-2.el6.src.rpm == dmidecode-2.11-2.el6_1.src.rpm.

tigervnc-1.0.90-0.15.20110314svn4359.el6_1.1.src.rpm is missing from my scripts output but an update, so I guess I'll have to fix my script too ;)

And a few more hits that I need to check, possible RPMS that do not produce packages with their own name but only with extensions, f.e. libassuan that only produces libassuan-devel.

You may want to rerun the script after including the FASTTRACK repo from CentOS. That will reduce false positives.

Heh :) Good catch.
Still leaves: CentOS: dmidecode-2.11-2.el6 RHEL63: dmidecode-2.11-2.el6_1 Unless dmidecode-2.11-2.el6.src.rpm == dmidecode-2.11-2.el6_1.src.rpm this is an update.

Don't forget these. First two might be false positives, the two below probably aren't.

Producing an accurate list of "missing packages" is tricky -- mainly because you need access to RHN. There are cases in which the SRPMS are still at the ftp site but their binaries are no longer available. Then there are those that are still available but not in *6.3*, only in older releases (certain kmod packages belong to this group), etc etc.

Even though RHN of course is the ultimate resource you can get pretty far by just checking the Technical notes for 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3.
Perhaps someone with RHN access could double check the availability of these packages, although the information extracted from the TNs suggests most of the ones I mentioned are indeed available upstream. So far only "report" seems to be discontinued.

Perhaps you can point me to a location where the excluded package are documented so I can use that for future reference and save myself some time going through all the tech notes?

you need to cycle through the srpms look at exclusivearch and work back from there - and also check the notes to see whats released where.
there are rpms released to only one arch as well, even when they build to multiple ones :/

So, that still leaves the following that I am looking into:
cdrkit-1.1.9-11.el6 clustermon-0.16.2-18.el6 compat-gcc-295-2.95.3-86.el6 compat-gcc-296-2.96-144.el6 compat-gcc-32-3.2.3-69.el6 ding-libs-0.1.2-9.el6 hunspell-no-2.0.10-5.1.el6 libehca-1.2.2-3.el6 librtas-1.3.4-2.el6 mpitests-3.2-5.el6 ovirt-node-1.9.3-28.1.el6 virt-who-0.6-6.el6 xorg-x11-drv-geode-2.11.12-1.el6 xorg-x11-drv-neomagic-1.2.5-1.el6

Hello Johnny,
A few more questions because it's not always sure if your reply only relates to one package or those above as well...

I think you overlooked this one. I'm quite sure the comment below does not apply to kdebindings ;) .
libehca-1.2.2-3.el6
And this, or is this S390 too?
libica-2.1.0-2.el6
s390 only, not supported
librtas-1.3.4-2.el6
PPC only too?
libservicelog-1.1.9-6.el6
ppc only, not supported
lsvpd-1.6.10-5.el6
ppc only, not supported
What about libvpd? You build and distribute that.

Added to my list.
libehca-1.2.2-3.el6

Still researching.
libica-2.1.0-2.el6
s390 only, not supported
librtas-1.3.4-2.el6

Still Researching
libservicelog-1.1.9-6.el6
ppc only, not supported
lsvpd-1.6.10-5.el6
ppc only, not supported

If it is built, then it does not have an EXCLUSIVEARCH set in the SRPM ... however, here is lsvpd, which does:
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2012-0795.html
libvpd should also be ppc only ... but they left out the EXCLUSIVE ARCH in their SRPMS:
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2011-0548.html
So, libvpd should be (and will be) removed. (see what we have to go through for the 6.x releases)

<snip>
Here is my research .. I think no action is required, based on the individual comments:
======================= cdrkit-1.1.9-11.el6
This is built ... not missing (built packages are not named cdrkit, but instead dirsplit, genisoimage, icedax, wodim)
No Action Required. ======================= clustermon-0.16.2-18.el6
This is built ... not missing (built packages are not named clustermod, but are named modcluster*)
No Action Required. ======================= compat-gcc-295-2.95.3-86.el6
Not Required s390 only
No Action Required. ======================= compat-gcc-296-2.96-144.el6
This can build on CentOS-6, but is not in the upstream i686 or x86_64 repos
No Action Requried. ======================= compat-gcc-32-3.2.3-69.el6
This can build on CentOS-6, but is not in the upstream i686 or x86_64 repos
No Action Requried. ======================= ding-libs-0.1.2-9.el6
This is built, not missing (built packages not named ding-libs, but libpath_utils and libpath_utils-devel)
No Action Required. ======================= hunspell-no-2.0.10-5.1.el6
This is built, not missing (built packages not named hunspell-no, but are hunspell-nb, hunspell-nn, hyphen-nb, hyphen-nn, mythes-nb, mythes-nn)
No Action Required. ======================= kdebindings-4.3.4-5.el6
This is built, not missing (built packages not named kdebindings, but are named PyKDE4, PyKDE4-akonadi, PyKDE4-devel, kross-python)
No Action Required. ======================= libehca-1.2.2-3.el6
ExclusiveArch: ppc ppc64
No Action Required. ======================= librtas-1.3.4-2.el6
ExclusiveArch: ppc ppc64
No Action Required. ======================= mpitests-3.2-5.el6
This is built, not missing (built packages not named mpitests, instead named openmpi, mvapich, mvapich2, mvapich-psm, mvapich2-psm)
No Action Required. ======================= ovirt-node-1.9.3-28.1.el6
ovirt-node is not in the upstream release for 6.3, nor is it in Scientific Linux or Oracle Linux for EL6.
No Action required. ======================= python-rhsm
Desc: "A Python library to communicate with a Red Hat Unified Entitlement Platform"
This is not included in CentOS because it is used to comunicate with RHN ... we do not communicate with RHN.
No action required. ======================= virt-who-0.6-6.el6 Desc: "Agent that collects information about virtual guests present in the system and report them to the subscription manager"
This is not included in CentOS because it is used to comunicate with RHN ... we do not communicate with RHN.
No action required. ======================= xorg-x11-drv-geode-2.11.12-1.el6
ExclusiveArch: %{ix86} This is released on i686, is not required for x86_64.
No action required. ======================= xorg-x11-drv-neomagic-1.2.5-1.el6
ExclusiveArch: %{ix86} This is released on i686, is not requried for x86_64
No action required. ======================= vios-proxy-0.2-1.el6
Based on the SRPM, there is no vios-proxy-0.2 rpm, just vios-proxy-host-0.2-1*, vios-proxy-guest-0.2-1*, and vios-proxy-guest-0.2-1*
Therefore the CentOS tree has vios-proxy-0.1-1.rpm (build from the older SRPM), and the vios-proxy-0.2-1 RPMS (built from the new RPM). This is the approach by Scientific Linux and Oracle Linux.
No Action Required. ======================= zaf-0-0.3.20080714svn.1.el6
This is built ... not missing (built packages are not named zaf, but are named hyphen-af and hyphen-zu)
No Action Required. =======================

Do you mean there are no binaries in the upstream 6.3 tree for this? That is weird, both TN 6.2 and TN 6.3 mention there are bug fixes for this package.

You might want to remove the existing rpm from the repos then. Still exists on C5.8 too.
Thank you for checking my list. Glad to see all packages are accounted for. I will make sure to compile a list with exceptions and add some sort of srpm to rpm name translation for source packages that do not produce a package with the same name.
dmidecode-2.11-2.el6.src.rpm and dmidecode-2.11-2.el6_1.src.rpm only differ in the changelog so no action required.
gnome-power-manager-2.28.3-6.el6.src.rpm and gnome-power-manager-2.28.3-6.el6_2.src.rpm contents are exactly the same (apart from mtime), so no action required.
Regards, Leonard.

This may be needed to build RHEV-Node-iso's, which are basically a stripped-down version of a RHEL 6.x distro with a text mode UI, and therefore not part of the upstream release. This is only speculation though.
