In my attempts to reproduce what you are seeing, I used 'yum info' a few times for the packages that were not on my systems. But in your case (pure rpm operations) yum cache will not be relevant. By the way I looked at both CentOS 5 and 6 but did not see any inconsistency. And the reason why I asked about the kernel version was because it was not clear which version/release of CentOS you are running. Sorry for the noise. I will shut up now. Akemi
