The error message means there was a problem deep in the code. Normally there should be a stack trace (i.e. a lot of internal information from the interpreter) logged into /var/log/up2date Can you please provide the version of up2date you're running (rpm -q up2date) and attach the output of: rpm -qa and we'll try to reproduce it locally.

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: This action's status is: Failed. The client picked up this action on 2005-07-25 15:47:12 EDT. The client completed this action on 2005-07-25 15:47:13 EDT. Client execution returned "Fatal error in Python code occured [[6]]" (code -1) Packages to be removed: gnome-libs-devel-1.4.1.2.90-44.1:1 glib-devel-1.2.10-15:1 indent-2.2.9-6 alsa-lib-devel-1.0.6-5.RHEL4 esound-devel-0.2.35-2:1 gtk+-devel-1.2.10-33:1 imlib-devel-1.9.13-23:1 libungif-devel-4.1.3-1 ORBit-devel-0.5.17-14:1 libtiff-devel-3.6.1-8 audiofile-devel-0.2.6-1:1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to interpret error message 2. Realize that it's vague Actual Results: The only line that makes an attempt to explain why the action failed follows: > Client execution returned "Fatal error in Python code occured [[6]]" (code -1) This does little to suggest why the action failed, or how to correct the problem. Expected Results: Error messages should indicate the condition(s) that caused the problem, and optionally suggest potential ways to resolve the condition(s). This message does neither.
