Description

I want to upgrade rudder-agent 2.8.1 to 2.9.1. The repo file is updated and the 2.9.1 package is available.

[root@node ~]# yum list installed rudder-agent
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

rudder-agent.x86_64          1398866025:2.8.1.release-1.EL.5           installed
[root@node ~]# yum list available rudder-agent

rudder-agent.i386           1398866025:2.9.1.release-1.EL.5          winz-rudder
rudder-agent.x86_64         1398866025:2.9.1.release-1.EL.5          winz-rudder

If I tell the "Package management for RHEL / CentOS / SuSE / RPM systems" technique to upgrade it, it doesn't work.

But the old version is still there.
