[Spacewalk-list] How can my CentOS 6.5 be up to date?

[Kevin Sandy]

Did you setup a 6.5 updates channel and repo, or just the base?  When showing updates, Spacewalk is showing you what packages updates it has available for the client, which won’t be the same as a ‘yum list updates’ if you have external repos defined directly on the client.

Just looking.  I then registered the 6.5 client with the Spacewalk server and checked to see if it was up to date or not.  Spacewalk is telling me that the client is up-to-date.  This is not accurate, why?
