CLOSED: No packages marked for update when running yum update

Hello all -

For the last month or two, executing the update command in Amahi (yum update -y) yields only the following message after checking all mirrors -

No packages marked for update.

I used to have tons of updates every week, so I find it hard to believe that none of my installed applications are being updated. I'm concerned something is wrong. I've executed the following commands to make sure that stale cache or something isn't getting in the way-
yum clean metadata
yum clean all
yum clean expire-cache

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Amahi 7 - Fedora 19

That is correct. There are probably no updates available.

With Fedora 22 out and Fedora 19 has reached it's end-of-life in January this year, so there won't be any new updates.

The Amahi applications do not auto update unless it's something like Amahi Anywhere, Greyhole, or Amahi Sync.

If you want to update applications to the latest version, you will have to uninstall and reinstall the application. For example, phpMyAdmin has been updated numerous times over the past few months.

BTW, we are testing Amahi 8 for Fedora 21.

Please see Amahi 8 wiki page for details.
