I compile a few rpms from their src.rpm for athlon-xp architecture, e.g. xorg. up2date ignores such rpms from up2date and does not even show if there is any update available. Why does it ignore the file if .athlon. is added to the name of the rpm? Does recompiling change anything within RPMs also?
I suspect up2date is looking for a update matching the architecture of the package you already have installed. There won't be an official release of any athlon packages, so you'll probably need to build those yourself again from the update SRPMS.
