seems like the first line I get back is valid, but the rest I don't get why it's happening - I don't get why you'd need anything interactive just to list stuff. [root@bp6 up2date_client]# up2date --show-channels redhat-linux-i386-7.2 No interactive mode available Please specify either -l, -u, --nox, or package names as command line arguments.

For testing purposes
hmm, for some reason I have avoided fixing this because I was thinking it needed substantial changes to the arg parsing. Looks like I can just exit after showing the channels and it does what everyone expects. Should be fixed in 2.7.63 or higher (fix in cvs currently)
