To eliminate the duplicate and problem packages, you will have to identify 
which ones.

You can modify /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf to add something like:

[rpmforge-6-x86_64]
exclude=perl*

This example will not install any package named perl* to be installed but you 
still will see them in the web UI (but from command line with yum, you will be 
ok).

To remove them from the web UI, you will have to delete the package from the 
channel and in the repository filter field  add:

-perl*

This will prevent to sync any perl package from the repository.

After all that you will be ok with the web UI.

Hope this help you.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] checking for package conflicts

Hello,

I have been having lot of problems with conflicts and duplicate packages while 
performing the system update. Is there a command to check for conflicts before 
scheduling the actual update in the UI?

Hosts are running with RHEL5.5 and 6.2 and I wanted to upgrade the systems to 
latest dot releases.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Ramesh
