[Yum] yum not installing most recent kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings,

I think I've found a bug in yum-arch.  We're using yum 2.0.4 (I know, 
not the newest version) on RHEL3, and "yum update" is not installing the 
newest kernel in the repository:

chicken [1048] ls |grep kernel-2.4.21-15
kernel-2.4.21-15.0.2.EL.athlon.rpm
kernel-2.4.21-15.0.2.EL.i686.rpm
kernel-2.4.21-15.0.3.EL.athlon.rpm
kernel-2.4.21-15.0.3.EL.i686.rpm
kernel-2.4.21-15.EL.athlon.rpm
kernel-2.4.21-15.EL.i686.rpm

chicken [1049] cd headers
chicken [1049] ls |grep kernel
(snip)
kernel-0-2.4.21-15.EL.athlon.hdr
kernel-0-2.4.21-15.EL.i686.hdr


I did a yum-arch -vv -z . in the repository directory when I created the 
headers, and saw the following lines:

Digesting rpm - kernel-2.4.21-15.EL.i686.rpm - 229/604
ignoring older pkg: kernel-2.4.21-15.0.3.EL.i686.rpm

However kernel-2.4.21-15.0.3 has a newer build date.  It is indeed the 
newer package and should be chosen over kernel-2.4.21-15

Thoughts?

THanks,

Brian Ferguson.
