Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated yum-rhn-plugin package that fixes a bug is now available.
Description
yum-rhn-plugin provides support for yum to access a Red Hat Network server
for software updates.
This package addresses the following bug:
- yum clean all would not remove packages from the cache correctly, leaving
downloaded rpms in /var/cache/yum/rhel*/packages/. This updated package
fixes the issue and yum clean all now removes packages from the cache
correctly.
Users of yum should upgrade to this updated package, which resolves this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
