Looks like the server you were getting the updates from has an incomplete sync, or is in the process of syncing. Do a 'yum clean all, and try again later today.

Quite likely they just hit two different mirrors, one mirror is probably already fully in sync with master, the other is not. As it was already mentioned on this list, with big release (5.11 it is this time) it takes time for all mirrors to synchronize.

I just tried again and the second machine had 41 packages updated, including those mentioned above. For the record, no other yum commands were required. I just needed to re-run the same old yum update. Thanks to all for the kind counsel, ken ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
