up2date bomb out
Last modified: 2015-01-07 19:01:29 EST
I had a fresh install of RH 8.0. I registered machine with up2date --register. Then run up2date -u. I've got this tracebac: # locale LANG=C LC_CTYPE="C" LC_NUMERIC="C" LC_TIME="C" LC_COLLATE="C" LC_MONETARY="C" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_PAPER="C" LC_NAME="C" LC_ADDRESS="C" LC_TELEPHONE="C" LC_MEASUREMENT="C" LC_IDENTIFICATION="C" LC_ALL= # up2date -u Fetching package list for channel: redhat-linux-i386-8.0... ######################################## Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: redhat-linux-i386-8.0... ######################################## Fetching rpm headers...

At the same time other system works ok (an up-to-date system which was registered few days ago). So RHN server semms to be up (maybe wrong reply in this reported case).

Should be "fixed" now. Can you please confirm? [we tried to re-enable rpm header compressions and they were never tested with the 8.0 client, therefore we didn't know they are broken. Hmmm. Reassigning to rhnlib i.e. myself :-( ]
up2date works now! Thank you for your help!
I have been able to run up2date succesfully. I tryed to downgrade fetchmail and run up2date again. It works. Seems to be fixed. Thanx.
Leaving this open to track the rhnlib bug.
