Hi all, CentOS 5.2, not yet updated to 5.3. Based on the alert on udev, I attempted to update udev and libvolume packages with the following result. A check of what's currently on the system reveals udev-095-14.19.el5 which I believe to be the affected version. Is it just that it hasn't rolled out to all the mirrors yet? Thanks in advance, -Ray [root at wh01]# yum clean all Loading "downloadonly" plugin Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "priorities" plugin Cleaning up Everything [root at wh01 yum.repos.d]# yum install udev-095-14.20.el5_3.i386.rpm libvolume_d-095-14.20.el5_3.i386.rpm libvolume_id-devel-095-14.20.el5_3.i386.rpm Loading "downloadonly" plugin Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "priorities" plugin Determining fastest mirrors * base: mirror.steadfast.net * updates: centos.mirror.nac.net * addons: mirror.nyi.net * extras: mirror.atlanticmetro.net base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 878 kB 00:12 base : ################################################## 2508/2508 updates 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 101 kB 00:00 updates : ################################################## 156/156 addons 951 B 00:00 primary.xml.gz 157 B 00:00 extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 90 kB 00:00 extras : ################################################## 298/298 0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments No package udev-095-14.20.el5_3.i386.rpm available.

[CentOS] udev & libvolume packages not updating
Hi, Before you think about updating this single package:> CentOS 5.2, not yet updated to 5.3.Does not make much sense. You should update and move on to 5.3, if not for other reasons, to keep your machine secure. Updating individual packages might not work, it might even end up breaking your machine.
