Enigma: yum check-update doesn\\\'t show all rpms in a repository

[pmconway]

Thanks a lot for your replies, Dennis.  Yum list | grep alsa returned this:
________________
  alsa-lib.i386   1.0.6-5          installed
  alsa-utils.i386 1.0.6-3          installed
  alsa-lib-debuginfo.i386 1.0.6-5  updates-released
  alsa-lib-devel.i386           
________________

Is alsa-lib-1.0.6-7.FC3.i386.rpm not considered an update to  alsa-lib.i386 1.0.6-5?

Maybe a simpler case: yum says 
_________________
gpdf.i386 2.8.2-1.2 installed
_________________

but when I do a yum check-update using the same repo above, yum doesn't return an available gpdf rpm - though Firefox, pointed to http://limestone.uoregon.edu/ftp/fedora/updates/3/i386/, shows that gpdf-2.8.2-2.2.i386.rpm is available.

I'm really confused.  Thanks a lot for helping.

Trish
