[Spacewalk-list] Updates not seen as needed for clients

Hello,
I have a spacewalk 1.5 installation on PGSQL backend.
I have a base channel containing RHEL 5 x64 rpms.
My test clients have RHEL 5.6 installed.
I've rhnpushed the rpm of RHEL 5.7 in the base channel.
The problem is that in the web ui, no packages are marcked for updates.
When I connect on a client, and launched yum update command, here is the
(filtered) output:
 Transaction Summary
Install       1 Package(s)
Upgrade     178 Package(s)
Total download size: 287 M
Is this ok [y/N]: N

Here is the log when running rhn_check -vvvv :

I've ran rhn_check 6 hours after rhnpushing the updates. Is there a problem
in my setup? Where could I find useful information?

Thanks in advance for you help,

Pierre
