Description of problem:
up2date fails to update xerces package

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
up2date-4.4.63-3

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  ks a client to rhel 3 u6 with @ Everything
2.  install the latest up2date
3.  subscribe the client to all available channels on hosted
4.  run 'up2date'
5.  check 'xerces' package to update
6.  click 'Forward'

days, literally.
