Description J.C. Molet 2012-04-05 14:29:15 UTC 
Description of problem:
The Next update date given in the rhsm-gui doesn't seem to add up.  If I add up the frequencies of the rhsmcertd for either the autoheal or the cert refresh to the current date, I'll get a completely different date than what it says the next update will be.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python-rhsm-0.99.7-1.git.1.e68bc91.el6.noarch
subscription-manager-gnome-0.99.12-1.git.18.188dde8.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-0.99.12-1.git.18.188dde8.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set your rhsmcertd to refresh on a small interval (for maximum effect)
2. Restart the service
3. Start up subscription manager
  
Actual results:
The Next Update date seems to come out of nowhere

Expected results:
The Next Update would be a combination of the last date it updated (or the current date if it never updated) plus the refresh frequency

Additional info:
see screenshot.

It appears that the interval is being added as hours instead of minutes from the conf file. I'm still looking for where this is going awry though.
