[K12OSN] yum update for K12LTSP 5.0EL fails on avahi-compat-howl

[Rob Owens]

I just ran:

yum update tzdata  -- it was successful

yum update pidgin  -- I got the following error, even though yum tells
me that pidgin is updatable
'Could not find update match for pidgin'

Not the same error you got, but an error nonetheless.
