Description Terje Røsten 2011-10-23 13:24:20 UTC

Description of problem:

Did a scan of rpm updates on several hosts, and found that some had thunderbird 7.0.1-1.fc15 installed.

That is latest upstream release, great!

However, on others I found  thunderbird-7.0-1.fc15. 

Doing a full "yum update" still leaves thunderbird at 7.0. In fact I can't locate the 7.0.1 update at all.

According to bodhi, it's pushed to stable:

  https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-13717

Are my mirror wonky or what is going on?

Might be I have overlooked something, however if updates get lost it's a pretty serious issue.

Confirmed here too:

thunderbird.x86_64 7.0-1.fc15 and
thunderbird.x86_64 7.0.1-1.fc15

"yum clean all && yum update" run on both machines - no change.
/etc/yum.repos.d/* identical.

Let me know if additional diagnostics needed.

I sync my data between these machines and keep getting the checking addons box along with the "What's New" tab - annoying after a while.

Not just limited to x86_64 as this from my 32bit netbook shows:

# uname -a
Linux netbook.home 2.6.40.6-0.fc15.i686 #1 SMP Tue Oct 4 00:51:19 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

# yum list | grep thunderbird
thunderbird.i686       7.0-1.fc15    @updates

Updates for other packages are working fine.

I guess it's already fixed, right? If not, please reopen. It may be handled by fedora release team.
