I see this too - rhn-applet does not notice new packages in the "Red Hat Linux (Severn) 9.0.93 - Beta Updates" channel. May be it just "forgets" to look beyond the primary channel? Exactly -- with Fedora test 2, it looks like it notices changes in the primary channel, but not in subchannels *** Bug 106249 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 106549 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** rhn-applet-2.1.1-1 reported updates available in several non-RHN channels for me, so I'd guess the problem of checking only the base channel is fixed, no? in a fully up2date system rhn-applet-2.1.2-1 still does not report about new packages. it goes red only after right-clicking on it and selecting "Check for updates" Yes I have seen it both working and not working in this respect. I have not been able to debug this yet, Daniel The same thing just happened to me with FC1. I knew there were a few updates in the updates dir but about 7 hours later, my icon still was a blue check instead of a red bang. Right clicking on the icon and telling it to "Check Updates" caused it to immediately turn into a red bang. same issue, FC1. up2date -l will show many new packages in http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1/headers/header.info. but RHN Alert Notification Tool shows no updates with the following message. The applet has been unable to access the following information sources in its last attempts: fedora-core-1 @ http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-1, updates-released @ http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1 Chris Stankaitis, you have an old rhn-applet that cannot handle redirects. Thats a different bug that has already been fixed in rhn-applet-2.1.4-2 which can be obtained by typing: up2date rhn-applet rhn-applet isn't listed as an available update when I run up2date (though, all other errata are, if I perform an up2date -l). I get the same error as Chris, and am only offered rhn-applet-2.1.2-1 as a choice. Any chance this hasn't been pushed to fedora-core-1 or the updates channel? It's in the testing updates channel. Yep, I think I will push it to the update channel soon, Daniel just to note for the record, updating to rhn-applet-2.1.4-3 resolved my issue. Thanks. Chris Seems fixed in FC2 T2. |
