Everyone:
When is the last time anyone got any updates?
Since packagekit quit working for me (and yes, I have a bug on file), I've been using "yum -y update" every day. For two days straight, it's done nothing: "No packages marked for update." Now is that true? Or am I getting yet another false negative?

Depends on how you have the meta data to expire. I generally do a yum clean all
Before, so it will get updated info

"yum clean all" is almost never the best thing to do. Either "yum clean expire-cache" or "yum clean metadata" will do what you want without throwing away your cache of downloaded rpms.

I have had no updates for several days except one for virtualbox that wants a later kernel.
I use "yum update" every morning, minus the "-y" since I prefer to know what it is going to update before letting it happen ...

There was a stable updates push that started 3 days ago that hasn't completed yet (for example, see https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-1865/kernel-3.18.6-200.f... which is one of the updates included in that push). The push often fails and has to be restarted, and F22 just branched and people are probably too busy with that at the moment.
