I've been trying to keep up to date with Factory, but every time I try an
update, it fails for some reason or another. It's usually "Failed to parse
XML metadata: Can't add repository at
ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source :
Cannot create the installation source"
So after many weeks, I finally have factory "active" in rug, but now rug
thinks I'm up to date:
maus:~ # rug up
No updates are available.
The problem is that I'm not up to date:
maus:~ # rpm -q bash
bash-3.1-27
maus:~ # rug info bash
Catalog:
ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source
Name: bash
Version: 3.1-29
Arch: i586
Installed: No
Status: up-to-date
Why would rug think it's up-to-date when it clearly isn't? Here's my rug
sl/ca:
maus:~ # rug sl
