[tools] checksum errors only on a few packages

[John Lee]

Figured it out.....ran createrepo to recreate the metafiles on the server end, and had all the clients run "yum clean all" and run "yum update" again, and it all worked.....

  Subject: [tools] checksum errors only on a few packages


  Hi,

  Everyone in my company are having these problems with the same packages (bind, device-mapper, kernel-devel & kernel-smp) when running yum update...ONLY these packages have problems on multiple clients....:all other packages are fine....does anyone know why there is this checksum mismatch?  And why only these packages?  Any input on this matter would be appreciated.


  running yum causes these issues

  Is this ok [y/N]: y
