From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686; Nav) Description of problem: Trying to administer system with Sortware Manager. If I down load packages directly, this works OK. When I use the option button to use up2date--nothing happens? Am I missing something? How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log into Software manager 2. Pick package 3. Hit button that says use Up2date--web page comes up that says you should wait. Actual Results: As far as I can tell, nothing happens and then the page returns normally. Expected Results: ?? Shouldn't it lauch up2date and show me the package and then install? Additional info:
I am assuming that you are clicking the "RPM Update" button, in which case what actually happens is that an action item is written so that the next time that the rhnsd daemon runs on your machine, it checks in with the RHN servers and finds that it needs to download and install the package you indicated. So, the only thing which happens at the time that you click the button is that the action item is written.
