I know this has been covered rather extensively but it seems I've lost
track of the last best way to do an up2date no test3.
I've included the line in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources
yum rawhide http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/
Running up2date -u shows a huge list of things to update, get to the
dependancy resolving part and seems eventuall to hang completely.
It ran over 2hrs and had resouces pegged at 96% at the end of that
time, before I sig KILL'ed it.
On the other hand a `yum upgrade' shows the following output:
[root at exp root]# yum upgrade
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)

Server: Red Hat Linux 0.95 - Updates

Downloading needed headers

Resolving dependencies
.Dependencies resolved
I will do the following:
[update: compat-db 4.0.14-2.i386]
I will install/upgrade these to satisfy the dependencies:
[deps: compat-libstdc++ 7.3-2.96.118.i386]
Is this ok [y/N]: y
Getting compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.118.i386.rpm
Getting compat-db-4.0.14-2.i386.rpm
Calculating available disk space - this could take a bit
compat-libstdc++ 100 % done 1/2
compat-db 100 % done 2/2
Updated: compat-db 4.0.14-2.i386
Dep Installed: compat-libstdc++ 7.3-2.96.118.i386
Transaction(s) Complete
That is, 2 pkgs upgraded.
So what is happening here? I'm not supposed to use up2date now?
