The yumcmd.check_update method returns the str value of an yum package object. In the latest version of yum, the str method looks like

out = '%s-%s-%s.%s' % (self.name, self.version, self.release, self.arch)

The result is something like "foo-1.0-2.noarch". However, the update method only takes an rpm name. In the example, the name is simply "foo."

Running the command yumcmd.update("foo-1.0-2.noarch") won't do anything because no package has that *name*. Only yumcmd.update("foo") will update the package.

I've changed the update method to pass in a pattern instead of a name. Yum is much more flexible when dealing with patterns and will actually update if you leave in the version, release, and architecture.

Merge'd and pushed. Thanks.
