No matter which up2date channel I select -- or don't select, I keep getting a long list of available packages from the 'extras' channel. Has anyone else noticed this? A bug?
I'll tell you what I've noticed with up2date: the system-tray button shows a blue checkmark even though updates are available on updates-released, or any channel other than base. I tried to configure sources.list using repomd channels, each pointing to a named .repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d/. But if the update is not in base, then up2date won't see it.
/Unless/ I launch up2date and ask for an update scan. /Then/ it will see any updates that are available in any enabled repository.
I've had to solve that problem by getting used to running yum -y update every morning, just to make sure that I don't fall behind.
