Description of problem: rhn-applet normally displays a red exclamation point icon when updated packages are available on rhn, or a blue check mark if no package updates are available. However, if the machine is subscribed to a channel e.g. Severn Beta 2 (i386) and a subchannel e.g. Severn Beta 2 (i386) Updates, rhn-applet will display a blue check mark even if up2date indicates that package updates are available on the subchannel. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core test 2 version of rhn-applet (2.0.11-2?) How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Subscribe system to RHN with a base channel and child channel (such as Severn Beta 2 and Severn Beta 2 Updates) 2. Start X desktop and wait for rhn-applet (lower right corner by default) to check in. 3. Check for updates by running up2date. Even if up2date reports updates, rhn-applet will not. Additional info: I also observed this behavior in Severn Beta 1
