I'm running CentOS 5.4 and noticed that for the past month there haven't been any new updates showing up either on 'yum check-update' or 'yum update' (I'm interested in basic and security updates). Although this may be right, I wonder if there is an online reference where I can check the updates that are released for CentOS (security bulletins) and make sure if there is anything wrong with my update system.
View 11 Replies View RelatedThe last round of updates to 10.04 changed the initrd image, which I wasn't expecting. How do I check the updates to make sure that this is in fact the expected behavior? I.e., how do I go back and check which updates were supposed to have been installed, check what was actually installed, and see which one modified the initrd and why?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded to Fedora 15 from Fedora 14 using preupgrade. Most of the applications are working fine. But I am finding now that the OS does NOT check for updates. I am having to manually do the update each time although it is set to check for updates daily.
However, when I manually update using the code (below), it works fine.
Code:
yum update
I have been forbidden to enable automatic updates on our Ubuntu servers, for both security and regular packages.When I log into any of my four Ubuntu servers, the welcome message contains this:
39 packages can be updated.
26 updates are security updates.
However, when I run the Nagios plugin that monitors APT, I get:
% /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_apt
APT WARNING: 33 packages available for upgrade (0 critical updates).
I need to know how to properly detect that there are pending security updates, and regular updates. Once I can do that, I plan to write a Nagios script that will return WARNING for pending regular updates, and CRITICAL for pending security updates.
Starting with Ubuntu Server 9.04, when I log in at times the OS smartly reports the number of updates available. I have a couple of questions of how to extend this functionality:
1) How could I back-port that functionality to 8.04 servers? Does that happen somewhere in the /etc/cron.daily/apt script? (Just the checking on # of packages needing updates, does not need to appear on the login screen.)
2) Then with that information, if the number >0 then use mailx to send admins an email. Since 9.04 and higher already do the first item, then in my mind #2 is the only thing needed for 9.04 and higher servers, and #1 is also needed for 8.04 boxes.
I started having connection issues after last upgrade.. how can i check and rollback some updates? 10.10 netbook
ps. there's no History in Ubuntu Software Center
if i have not registered my RHEL at RHN then how will I check new errata and updates of my rhel servers. As my organisation policy don't allow me to register my RHEL servers at rhn due to security issue.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI currently have Red Hat 5.4 installed and subscribed to red hat network for alert updates.The updates will be done by our administrator but I will like to check if the admin has done so on a weekly basis. Is there a command that generates a report or allows me to check if certain updates has been patched? I understand running a yum update will list all applicable patches. Should we just simply update all or only certain applications applicable to our organization environment?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some reason Update Manager is not installing updates as of yesterday.I have it set to check daily and notify if updates are available. It has been working without issues for well over a year now.
Update Manager tells me updates are available and presents the list of security, recommended, and other updates. All are selected to update, but when I select Install Updates in Update Manager it returns with a Reading Package Information window overlaid on the main Update Manager window - building dependency tree then reading state information and dumps me back to the main Update Manager window without performing any update actions.
I just learned that warsow 0.6 is out, and went to see if it was available in the ubuntu software center yet, as opposed to going and downloading and installing it manually from the warsow website. The ubuntu repo's still have version 0.5, and at the bottom of the page it says:
"Updates: Canonical does not provide updates for Warsow. Some updates may be provided by the Ubuntu community."
So if I wanted to 'update' this item in the repo's for the better of the community what would that entail?
There are some updates in the Update Manager list which I do not install. Among them, some drivers for HP Printers (I don't know why this cropped up; I don't even use printers on my laptop), and gcj updates (I use gcc/g++ but not gcj). I unchecked them the first time I saw them on my UM list. However, for every subsequent batch of new updates, UM retains these updates and I need to uncheck them every time. How can I remove them totally from my UM list?

View 5 Replies View RelatedSo, it is my understanding that Ubuntu's automatic updates do not install ANY updates that are not "important security updates." For example, it did not upgrade me to Firefox 4 automatically; I had to do it myself (Don't all new browser versions usually contain new security features/patches? Oh well...That is a separate question entirely).
ANYWAY, is there some way to get the latest stable versions of all of my open-source software automatically (or at least all at once, on command), instead of just security updates? It seems silly to have to install new versions for every program manually.
Also, related/side question: Now that I have installed Firefox 4 myself (via apt-get by adding the mozilla-stable PPA), will I stop getting security updates for Firefox through the standard Ubuntu update manager?
Actually, a really thorough explanation of the whole automatic update system (or a link to one) would be great too.
I am new to Debian but not Linux-based systems. I have been experimenting a lot with Debian Lenny/Squeeze. I am growing more comfortable each day with the Debian design. Yet there remain many unexplored areas. I am creating a migration check list. Things to check, prepare, or reconfigure when moving from one Linux-based system to Debian.
I have a good computer background and my current check list probably is fairly good. Yet I would appreciate input and opinions from experienced Debian users of things to watch in such a migration. Login defs, passwd/group files, different directory locations, keymaps, services and daemons, etc. I am not too concerned with the desktop as I plan to stick with KDE 3.5 for a while and I can basically move those settings across.
I want to put check menu & check list in utility dialog.i dont know how i do this

I am using Fedora 13 and I have one program (wine) that I need to start grabbing for the updates-testing repo instead of the default repositories in order to get newer versions. I think I can figure out how to add that repository, but I need to know if there are any others I need to disable or any other changes I need to make to my system so that I don't confuse my set up with conflicting updates.
Also, is there anything special I need to do to be sure that only that one program is grabbed from the testing repo when I run regular updates?
when ever i try to install updates i get shown an error & the updates stop the error i get says "librpmio.so.0 is needed by package abrt-1.0.3-1.fc12.i686 (updates) librpm.so.0 is needed by package abrt-1.0.3-1.fc12.i686 (updates)"

I am running Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix, and was happily running E17 ontop of it until last night, I install some updates (I believe for CUPS) and now I only have access to Gnome. When I try to log into E it sends me back to the log in screen after doing the two drums from Ubuntu like I typed the password wrong, however Gnome works just fine.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using SeaMonkey as my mail client, and have never set up Evolution, so when Update Manager keeps offering me Evolution updates, I've been unchecking and ignoring them.
But I suspect there might be some common files in the Evolution package that other mail clients or other Gnome features depend upon.Could I totally remove Evolution software in order to stop me being bombarded with updates to Evolution, or are there dependencies I should be aware of before doing that?
Is the original ISO for Ubuntu 9.04 continually being updated (ISO wise) or is the one from 7 month ago the same today. I installed 9.o4 32 bit on my memory stick and it works OK. When I went to update it I get the error that the / is not big enough. I am using a 4 gig memory stick with 2.1 gig free space. gparted does not work. I used the the installation program from pendrivelinux site. Ubuntu 9.10 does not work.
