Symptom: It remains green and showing the 2 arrows. It never changes. I no longer see the checkmark, question mark, or the exclamation point.
The RPM that is installed is:
rhn-applet-2.1.7-1.1.i386.rpm
Problem: Clicking on the icon is supposed to run the command: rhn-applet-gui. When I click on the icon, nothing (apparent) happens.
running the command rhn-applet-tui tells me (right now):
[root@kjc386 src]# rhn-applet-tui Ignoring No package updates are needed.
running the command rhn-applet-gui from a command line yields:
[root@kjc386 src]# rhn-applet-gui /usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet.py:362: DeprecationWarning: integer argument expected, got float self.animate_timeout_tag = gtk.timeout_add(math.floor(1000 * ANIMATION_TOTAL_TIME/len(frames)), self.animate_handler)
and hangs there. It never finishes. I have to type control-C to get a prompt back.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong? Or what else you might need to provide a reasonable diagnosis? Or (even better) how to fix it??????
My FC2 is an upgrade from RH9..... I'm pretty sure that whatever broke it when I upgraded to RH9 is still broken, I just don't know what it could be.
I also have the Red Hat Network applet installed in my system try. It runs up2date. It works just fine....
