From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030922 Description of problem: The RHN satellite web interface and the GNOME Panel Applet both indicate the availability of an updated kernel package (kernel-2.4.21-4.0.1.EL). However, up2date fails to find this package as available. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): up2date-4.0.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install base operating system 2. Register with satellite (rhnreg_ks with activation key in my case) 3. up2date -uf Actual Results: Updated packages except kernel were downloaded and installed. Expected Results: All updated packages should have been downloaded and installed. Additional info:

Additionally, I attempted to upgrade the kernel by scheduling an action for it via the RHN Satellite web interface. The action returned that it was successful, but an "rpm -q kernel" still showed the old kernel (and only the old kernel) installed.
I created a yum repository with just the kernel errata and pointed up2date at it. up2date then found it and installed it as it should. This leads me to believe there is some problem in the interaction with up2date and our satellite. We are running version 2.6.1 of the satellite.
Changes were made to our satellite. This bug has been fixed. You may resolve.
