Description Šimon Lukašík 2010-11-29 12:02:37 UTC

Description of problem:
On different Rhel releases there are different gui applications for
updating packages. For example:
 * Rhel4 uses Red Hat Update Agent, rhn-applet
 * Rhel5 uses pirut
 * Rhel6 uses gnome-packagekit
The most of parts of Reference guide describes rhn-applet family
which is quite outdated.

It would be nice to have described at least this difference somewhere.

How reproducible:
Many pages of RHN Satellite 5.4.0 Reference Guide

Please provide updated commands for RHEL5/6.
