I have a problem with up2date with RHEL4 AS(x86_64)

up2date -l --nox gives the following:

Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: rhel-x86_64-as-4...

Fetching rpm headers...
########################################

Name                                    Version        Rel
----------------------------------------------------------
gcc                                     3.4.3          9.EL4 
  x86_64

The following Packages are obsoleted by newer packages:

Name-Version-Release        obsoleted by      Name-Version-Release
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgnat-3.4.3-9.EL4                     gcc-3.4.3-9.EL4 



Basically it tells me that libgnat-3.4.3-9.EL4 is replaced by 
gcc-3.4.3-9.EL4. What can be done with this. It is obviously wrong, but 
where would I change this listing, or where could I get the new RPM for 
libgnat so I could install it manually. I can't se an update channel in RHN.

I solved the problem by removing libgnat (I don't really need Ada 95 
runtime libraries). But the real solution should be to check the up2date 
database.
