Of course, they are to be there. They are part of the OS, exactly. You have been using CentOS for a while and upgraded several times in the past, have you forgotten in the meantime how CentOS/RHEL upgrading works? > in centos version of these packages the dist tag comes from earlier > release. even if they are the same package they should have to rebuild > with the same dist tag as in rhel (eg: .el5 <-> .el5_4): these have not been updated, there is no reason to retag them > and a lots of updates still missing: you are looking for things that don't exist, e.g. libvirt-0.8.2-15.el5_6.1 is 0.8.2-15.el5.3 And Java isn't part of CentOS anymore, AFAIK. If you do not like the tagging/naming scheme. I'm pretty confident this is taken from upstreamm, you have to complain there. Kai
