Figure 4.9. Fetching package list
Note
If the version of up2date on your system is older than the one in your selected channel,
the Red Hat Update Agent asks whether you would like to update it. If you agree, the only
package that will be updated is the up2date package. This is equivalent to executing
the up2date up2date command from a shell prompt. Once the updated process has
completed, the Red Hat Update Agent restarts and completes the initial update of the
system.
