Hmm... strange, not here (and as said, up2date/rhnlib are the FC2
versions, with only some features *added*).  Of course, the base
OS is different.

Well, that was exactly *one* letter, a typo I made myself when adding
the "yumx" feature (yum with headerx.info files with sizes).  B.t.w.,
I made this ugly hack because I couldn't wait for an elegant solution,
I hope I can use the metadata format in future releases, but that
didn't work well in up2date at that moment.
