Description Raul Mahiques 2011-07-07 16:02:07 UTC
When scheduling the installation of a package that is older than the one installed in the system: ie. using the API the scheduled action reports it succeed but if we examine the system we can see how the newer version is still installed, therefore the success status reported is missleading.

Comment 3 Tomas Lestach 2016-06-24 09:18:51 UTC
Actually, yum (on RHEL6) behaves in the same way as described in the #Description.

Closing as NOTABUG.
