[rhelv6-list] rebuilt package not showing selected for update

I have been rebuilding the "ksh" RPM starting in RHEL5.0 (thru RHEL5.5)
to change the behavior of he builtin "echo" command. This has never been
an issue, I just plunk the rebuilt RPM file down in our local YUM repo,
run createrepo and a 'yum update' will detect the package and install
it, replacing the existing ksh package.

 

For some reason I can't figure out, this is not working in RHEL6... I
was able to rebuild it fine, but after putting everything in place, 'yum
check-update' does not see it.

 

The command I used to rebuild is:

 

rpmbuild --define 'dist .el6' -bb ksh.spec

 

I've tried re-running the createrepo, running 'yum clean all', etc... no
luck.

 

Info from the package:
