SuSE 7.2 pro

`rpm -q ucdsnmp` returns 'ucdsnmp.4.2.1-23' on one system, 'ucdsnmp.4.2.1-63' on the other.

The security announcement indicates that ucdsnmp.4.2.3-79 should be available. Why is yast not finding it?

I'm not sure why YOU sin't finding it. It's probably just an rsync delay. You can retreive the 7.2 i386 packages directly from here:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.2/n2/ucdsnmp-4.2.3-79.i386.rpm

Thanks, I got it from there. I wasn't using YOU (part of yast2), but rather the 'update entire system' function of yast(1). When I am in a location that has a fast net connection, I prefer it to YOU, since it grabs all the updates, not just the critical/security ones. I've not been too fond of YOU, since it seems to ignore the rpm database, and wants to waste time re-downloading packages that I've already updated manually. Is that getting fixed in 8.0? Rick Green
