 Is anyone else seeing this situation?

 I subscribe to the announce digest, and for the last four or five
 announcements that contained updates to CentOS 5, I've been unable to
 get a successful run of yum update for as much as 24 hours after the
 announcement.  The last time around, I tried at about 5 hours after
 the posting, and yum couldn't see anything.  I ran yum clean all, and
 yum update still couldn't see anything.  In general, if I wait a day,
 the updates load just fine, but that just feels wrong.

 I do have the fastestmirror plugin installed (and priorities).

 Thanks.

Yes, I HAVE but no, I'm not. I really don't know what's different,
either. The announcement is dated Fri, 19 Jun 2009 12:00:02 -0400
and at 13:25 -0500 (2.4 hours later) I see a new kernel, new kernel-devel,
updated kernel-doc, updated kernel-headers and 6 updated user
packages ready to go.

I regard the delay as normal, current behavior to be an anomaly

Some don't update that quickly, see: http://mirror-status.centos.org/

Yes, I see it too. The announcement says in it that the files are being
released to the mirrors, not that they are available to download.

The following updated files have been uploaded and are currently
syncing to the mirrors:

 Some of the mirrors take a while to sync, or maybe don't check for updates as
often as others do.

That's about right, but it's now 19:38:xx -0700 (PDT) and I'm still
not seeing them update.

Ok, I lied - I just did a yum clean all, and voila!

Still, it's annoying  (I did that earlier and it made no difference.)

Thanks!

That makes a lot of sense.
