Description Pekka Savola 2000-06-27 09:46:22 UTC 
An interesting new feature would be the list of packages written to
upgrade.log that weren't either obsoleted or upgraded (or the version   
stayed the same).  

In other words, packages Redhat doesn't support in its base system, or has
dropped the support of (e.g. AfterStep). This could also
help in diagonizing problems when you know which packages _should_ be
upgraded..

In CVS.
Comment 2 Pekka Savola 2000-07-23 18:57:32 UTC 
Verified in beta4.

However, " " or "\n" was forgotten from the code, as the list seems a little funny:

cp: TmpFile: No such file or directory
The following packages were available on the CD but NOT upgraded:
nasm-0.98-5.i386.rpmprinttool-3.48-1.noarch.rpm[....]

cp: TmpFile -problem is probably related to this too.

Added some enhancement thoughts to #14489.
