additionally, the acroread package in the x86_64 channel hasn't yet
been updated to the 5.10 version that's in the i386 channel.

Any update to this?

Comment 3 Eric Hagberg 2005-03-15 19:30:29 UTC
Anyone? In RHEL4, this is again/still a problem with the RealPlayer rpm:

Comment 5 Adrian Likins 2005-05-17 19:01:13 UTC
Since this is more of a feature request than a bug fix (up2date
does not crash) I'm deferring this for this release.

Comment 6 Eric Hagberg 2005-05-17 19:12:33 UTC
up2date doesn't crash, but it fails to complete. I'd call this a bug.

All you need to do is make sure that a src.rpm is present, even if it's got to
be a dummy src.rpm, for every rpm you've got available from up2date.

Why can't that be done anytime before another release?

Comment 13 Clifford Perry 2006-03-27 17:38:40 UTC
There is currently no plans to fix this within the Enterprise Linux 3 version of
up2date. 

Regards,
Clifford. 

Comment 15 Eric Hagberg 2006-04-11 21:23:24 UTC
Same problem exists for RHEL4. Will that get ignored until just before its last
update as well, or might it get fixed?
