Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Still unclear as of FC3/latest - up2date-4.3.47-5 Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you! confirmed that this is still incorrect on FC5 ? There is no up2date on FC5.... OK... Hmm... Well, I am running FC5 and up2date is definitely there (if not working properly). Perhaps this redefines this bug? Closing for the same reason as 135111 |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10 Description of problem: In the online help, e.g. typing $ up2date --nox you see: --whatprovides=<deps> Show the packages which solve the comma separated list... In the man page, similarly: --whatprovides=<deps> Queries the RHN servers to resolve the comma seperated... However, in the examples at the end of the man page: up2date --whatprovides "/bin/bash,gimp,libhistory.so.4.1" (no equals sign) This is inconsistent and a bit unclear. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sendmail-devel-8.12.11-4.6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. up2date --nox 2. man up2date 3. compare occurrences of --whatprovides Additional info:
