Upgraded a workstation install from 6.2 to 7.0. Installed 2.0.6-1 from the CD via "rpm- ivh" since it was not initially on my 6.2. The app worked several times and then began to error out on "Get Headers for Available Packages". Error messages received refer to: libglade.py gui.py up2date.py gtk.py My search did not find a similar bug report.
Created attachment 6250 [details] up2date error
Decided to make a low priority and severity since the work-around is to manually ftp the desired RPM upgrades from the Red Hat web site.
(12/12/2000) Per submitter: I decided to once again remove the up2date application. I notices a message about /var/spool/up2date not being empty. As root, I removed all the rpm and hdr files and then removed the directory. I downloaded and installed up2date again and it completed downloading the headers, as well as the packages themselves. Seems like my config must have "froze" or something. Seems like the bug can be closed.
fixed in errata being released shortly.
