[ATrpms-users] rhel4: can't update with up2date anymore

[Amit Aronovitch]

Hi,

  Ever since 'native apt' metadata stopped being produced, I can't make 
up2date connect to atrpms.

  This is a standard rhel4 machine, and there's no yum nor apt installed 
here. I tried adding repomd line to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources, but it 
is just being ignored.

  Did atrpms stop supporting up2date? Should I install apt/yum? note 
that  installing any of them (from atrpms at least) requires upgrading 
the whole rpm system, and many more system packages (selinux, sqlite, 
and a lot more). I don't want to risk losing the ability to get redhat 
security fixes through their channels, and keeping track of two 
different package managers sounds like a headache...

  Will be grateful for any advice.
