    4 Packages can be updated

    When I logon to my server (9.04) using putty, I see the following screen:

    Code:
    Linux server 2.6.28-17-server #58-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 1 22:13:36 UTC 2009 x86_64

    However, when I run (in sudo) 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade', no packages can be installed:

    Code:
    rogier@server:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade;
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    The following packages have been kept back:
      landscape-common
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
    Why is that? Why are the four packages which CAN be installed not installed?

    Hmm. Seems like you're up to date then. The info printed at login is output by the "landscape-common" package. Maybe it thinks it needs to be upgraded in order to get the updates as well. Not sure about that.

    Is it possible that an update occurred since the login message? What happens if you logout and login again? Does it still say 4 updates are ready?

    Maybe landscape reporting is just out of sync.

    Problem solved, I had an instance of 'screen' open in the background. After logging out all sessions, the login screen is up-to-date again. Thanks!
