Have been running 5.4 x86_64 for a couple of months now. Every once in
a while, I would get a notice that updates were available.
It appears that about 3 weeks ago, yum stopped notifying me of updates.
Over that time, I've manually done a 'yum update' from a command line,
with an output that there are no updates.
I know this cannot be true, because I watch the 'centOS-announce Digest'
messages come through and see that there are updates for my
installation.
I tried 'yum clean all' followed by another 'yum update' and still no
updates are listed as available.
I have the priorities plugin installed and here is the output I get:
[root@desk ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities

Here is the contents of CentOS-Base.repo:
[root@desk yum.repos.d]# cat CentOS-Base.repo

#
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS
updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try
the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
