From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: I don't know that this is really a bug but ever since I can remember check-update is the only yum command that requres a "-" in it. everything else (groupupdate, grouplist) has no -. Very minor issue, but check-update seems to be inconsistant with the rest of the syntax for yum, I would think it should just be checkupdate. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-2.4.1-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum check-update 2. 3. Additional info:
umm - check-update is a convenience-only command and has been there for quite awhile. changing it now just seems silly, really.
