Description Šimon Lukašík 2010-11-29 13:36:17 UTC

Description of problem:
Reference guide contains detail specification about rhel4 clients data
structures. Unfortunately RHN client logs and cached information has
changed slightly over the years.

 * /var/spool/up2date is in no longer in use
 - On rhel5 and above we may want to refer to /var/cache/yum instead
 * /var/log/update is not used by gui applets on newer rhel
 * Older logs of /var/log/update are named differently on rhel6
 - 'up2date-20101129' instead of 'up2date.1'
 * Default rpm gpg key path has been changed
 - rhel3/4: /usr/share/doc/rpm-4.1/RPM-GPG-KEY
 - rhel3/4: /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY
 - rhel5/6: /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/
   (the last one is not documented)
