I'll tell you what I've noticed with up2date: the system-tray button 
shows a blue checkmark even though updates are available on 
updates-released, or any channel other than base. I tried to configure 
sources.list using repomd channels, each pointing to a named .repo file 
in /etc/yum.repos.d/. But if the update is not in base, then up2date 
won't see it.

/Unless/ I launch up2date and ask for an update scan. /Then/ it will see 
any updates that are available in any enabled repository.

I've had to solve that problem by getting used to running yum -y update 
every morning, just to make sure that I don't fall behind.
