On my test box, where I did an update from DVD over my existing FC5, anaconda did not install yum-updatesd. Thanks to your assist, I did a manual yum install of it and am now looking it over. Very different! There is a discussion of yum-updatesd in the thread "FC6 yum updates dependency problem". Seems to me that something as important as system updates ought to be more automatic from the install. I hope that I just plain missed it somehow.
