Hi,

Awesome! Thanks so much. Though my original question is still unanswered I 
think I did find one way to "update" the information. And that's using 
spacecmd. But since I'm not any sort of programmer, it's hard to understand I 
can can make use of it programmatically. Or even using the API and XMLRPC I can 
see I can update it that way but still I need samples on how to use the API.

But anyways, thanks for your work! Very much appreciated.

You know, I really should’ve looked before I sent this. :) I’ve found the spot 
in the up2date_client that determines the *-release package to use. Once 
shellshock madness is over, I’ll look into patching this to determine the 
difference between OL and RHEL and submit that upstream.

Cheers,
Avi
