There are no distinction with medium name, another problem preventing you from
adding update_source instead of update or any other name.

Did you tested again update_source with the new urpmi at least ?

For rpmdrake, it is normal I forget there could be incompabilities between
version of urpmi, so it need to be updated too, which prevent urpmi update only
if rpmdrake update are done too, or you loose rpmdrake. I should add a conflicts
with older version of rpmdrake, so that it will be removed if not updated.

"urpmi.update --update" takes a lot of time to work (cca. 5-10 minutes) if URMP
has no proxy settings (file /etc/urpmi/proxy.cfg is empty), but there is
environment 'http_proxy' variable set (file /etc/profile.d/proxy.sh has proxy
definition).
That kind of configuration is needed because we have firewall, but Mdk updates
mirror location is on the local network (local mirror ftp server for Mandrake
updates).

I think that the problem is in calling 'culr' command, if there is no proxy
settings in file '/etc/urpmi/proxy.cfg'. Urmpi.update calls curl as follows:

/usr/bin/curl 0-s -I ftp://nanos/linux/distr/Mandrake/updates/9.1/base/hd

I think that there is invalid parameter '0-s', which maybe? it should be '-0
-s', but I can not see the whole command line with parameters of the running
process to see the whole picture.
In this situation probably curl uses parameter '0-s' as an URL, which must be
found, but '0-s' URL doesn't exist.

There is no problem to make 'urpmi.update', if URPMI update source resides on
the internet (e.g. ftp://mandrake.redbox.cz/...). In this situation URPM http
proxy must be set because of the firewall.

Maybe there is a bug in vendor perl module 'urpm.pm'?
