When I run yum -y update I see that:

[root@server:/etc/yum.repos.d]# yum -y update

Repository base is listed more than once in the configuration

No Packages marked for Update/Obsoletion

But, no package is installed in spite of yum added 141 new packages. Yum -y upgrade does not work either.

This is my repo file:

[root@server:/etc/yum.repos.d]# cat centos4.repo

[base]

name=CentOS-$releasever - Base

baseurl=ftp://local_repo_server/centos/4/os/i386

timeout=1800

gpgcheck=1

gpgkey=ftp://local_repo_server /centos/4/os/i386/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4

priority=1

protect=1

[updates]

name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates

baseurl=ftp:// local_repo_server /centos/4/updates

timeout=1800

gpgcheck=1

gpgkey=ftp:// local_repo_server /centos/4/os/i386/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4

priority=1

protect=1

My local repo server is a mirror to centos internet servers and is up2date with centos 4.7.

Where's the problem?
