This looks like an RHN header of some kind. Bouncing it over there (and taking a guess at the component).
Hi, I was finally able to load the update through the command line using yum. The yum command kept giving me an error on the xen-libs dependcies. I removed the xen-lib package and reinstalled it and was able to install all updates through yum. However, I still not able to install any updates through the Software Updater gui. Richard LeBleu
The xen-lib issue was probably because your system is not subscribed to the virtualization child channel for rhel.
Ok, but how do I get pass the errors when using the Software Updater gui?
I get the following error when running software updater.

Can anyone please let me know if there is a solution to this problem. I can't update through the Software Updater. Is there a package I need to reinstall? Does this only only occur on 64bit architectures? I don't have any problems using Software Updater on a 32bit architecture. Richard LeBleu
