Actually i have the same problem, but when i tried to remove the up2date package, it failed because of dependencies. up2date is needed by (installed) firstboot-1.0.5-11 up2date = 3.1.23.2 is needed by (installed) up2date-gnome-3.1.23.2-1 /usr/share/rhn/RHNS-CA-CERT is needed by (installed) rhn-applet-2.0.9-0.9.0.1 Randy, is that ok to remove these packages ?
