The RHEL 3.9, 4.5, and 5 clients should support explicit versioning if it is handed down from the server. rhn500 should be explicit in terms of capturing specific nvrea and passing that down to the clients, please reopen the bug if you're seeing behavior that contradicts that. |
Description of problem: When I schedule an old version of a package from rhn to be installed on a system, I can see the scheduled event and the old package version. However when I do an rhn_check from the client system, it will not install the version I selected but will only install/upgrade the newer version. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Only tested in 410 How reproducible: Only tested once, and only on a package I previously had installed. Ie. the package I had installed was older than the version I wanted to upgrade to but not the latest. Steps to Reproduce: From rhn 1. Go to channels -> package search 2. Search for package you want to install 3. Select an old version of package. In this case I selected a package that was newer than the one I currently had installed, but older than the original. 4. From client either wait form sheduled event to occur or rhn_check 5. newer package will be installed instead of old Actual results: Installs newer version Expected results: Meant to install the old version that I selected Additional info: From rhn I had the following output display on the screen: "httpd-2.0.46-57.ent has been scheduled for install on 1 system." From the client I get the following output: # rhn_check Name Version Rel ---------------------------------------------------------- httpd 2.0.46 61.ent i386 httpd-2.0.46-61.ent.i386.rp ########################## Done. httpd-devel-2.0.46-61.ent.i ########################## Done. mod_ssl-2.0.46-61.ent.i386. ########################## Done.
