   The problem is in the rhn applet.  When fedora moved up2date to use 
yum repositories the applet was not told how to read the new style 
headers.  As a result you don't get informed.  As you may know up2date 
still works and will tell you what is ready when you click on the applet 
and select to start update.  Hopefully this will be resolved for FC5.
