From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003 Description of problem: I was updating my samba server with errata from about 10/7/2002 to 10/24/2002. This is a headless server. I sshed into the server from another 7.3 PC in an xterm window as I have always done with updates. I then issued the up2date command. All was going well until the last update, ypserv, RHSA-2002:223. The update bar was at 100%, when the gui up2date command was hung. I went back to the command window and found the traceback listed below. I had no choice but to hit the cancel button, which still functioned. up2date when executed again says that the system has been updated. An entry for kernel (2.4.18-17.7.x) was placed in /etc/grub.conf, etc. Are there some additional steps that I can perform to check what caused the failure?

Actual Results: Traceback Expected Results: Clean update Additional info: I have a rpm script that I run on my other computers. I will more than likely run it on the samba server to make sure all is well.
This will be fixed in the next release. It's a "up2date updating up2date in place" bug, which makes it hard to duplicate.
I'm seeing no problems upgrading from up2date-3.0.42-3 to up2date-3.1.1-1.
