The current up2date version is missing: - a definition for newly installed up2date - a config(noreplace) tag for /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources I am pushing now a corrected version on the mirror. i386: up2date-gnome-4.5.5-7.centos.2.i386.rpm up2date-4.5.5-7.centos.2.i386.rpm x86_64: up2date-gnome-4.5.5-7.centos.2.x86_64.rpm up2date-4.5.5-7.centos.2.x86_64.rpm howto fix: ---------- If it's update from 3.8, you should have a /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources.rpmsave file just copy it to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources to fix up2date. Or use yum instead of up2date ;). If up2date is broken due to the missing sources file, you can still use yum to update up2date: # yum update up2date Last resort, I have attached the default /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources, just copy it there. Once again, sorry for the error, and thanks for reporting it. :) Tru -- Tru Huynh (CentOS-3 i386/x86_64 Package Maintenance) http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xBEFA581B -------------- next part -------------- ### This describes the various package repositories (repos) that up2date will ### query for packages. It currently supports apt-rpm, yum, and "dir" repos. ### Format is one repository (repo) entry per line, # starts comments, the ### first word on each line is the type of repo. ### The default RHN (using "default" as the url means use the one in the ### up2date config file). This is required. #up2date default ### Note: when a channel label is required for the non up2date repos, ### the label is solely used as an internal identifier and is not ### based on the url or any other info from the repos. ### An apt style repo (the example is arjan's 2.6 kernel repo). ### The format is: ### type channel-label service:server path repo name #apt arjan-2.6-kernel-i386 http://people.redhat.com ~arjanv/2.5/ kernel ### Note: for apt repos, there can be multiple repo names specified (space ### seperated). ### A yum style repo.
