Hi,
Is anyone else seeing last nite's update "hang" on SL5.1 systems?
Near as I can tell, it's hanging on cups-1.3.7-11.el5_4.3.

I have 3 SL5.1 systems (all the 5.3 systems updated just fine)
that I did not get yum cron email from this morning, so went
investigating.

A 'ps auxw | grep yum' on one of the 5.1 systems yields:
root     10050  0.0  0.0   2372   960 ?        S    02:55   0:00 /bin/sh 
/etc/cron.daily/yum.cron
root     10051  0.0  0.0   2124   580 ?        S    02:55   0:00 awk -v 
progname=/etc/cron.daily/yum.cron progname {?????   print progname ":\n"????? 
progname="";????       }????       { print; }
root     11422  0.1  3.1  58104 49768 ?        S    03:53   0:46 /usr/bin/python 
/usr/bin/yum -c /tmp/yum.temp.config -e 0 -d 1 -y update

 ============================================================================

Looking at /var/log/yum.log, I see:
Nov 12 03:58:58 Updated: popt-1.10.2.3-18.el5.i386
Nov 12 03:58:59 Updated: nfs-utils-lib-1.0.8-7.6.el5.i386

Nov 12 03:59:05 Installed: nss-devel-3.12.3.99.3-1.el5_3.2.i386

 ============================================================================

So, the cups-libs got installed.

On one of the 5.1 systems, last nite's yum did not run for some reason,
so I did it by hand and sure enough, it's stalled on cups (see end of
screen output below)

And there it sits, not getting any more cpu time.
Any ideas Troy & Connie?

Thanks!
