Description of problem: Hi. After fresh MGA6 install, added repository and also enabled tained repo. Trying update system and it update all packages without packages from tained repository. This is only when I use GUI updater (rpmdrake). In console urpmi --auto-update listing all remains packages from tained but GUI show me that no packages to update. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install MGA6 x64 2. Enable tained repository 3. Update system via GUI (rpmdrake) 4. After update check it again and see - no updates available 5. Check now for updates in terminal - urpmi --auto-update it find packages for update from tained repo. See screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/BMrB6
That's because mageia-update (the updater) only looks for updates in repo's that are marked as update sources. To replace installed core packages with their tainted versions, you can either use "urpmi --auto-update" from the CLI or open "Install and remove software" and select "All Updates" from the first drop-down filter or use "drakrpm-editmedia --expert" and tag tainted-release as an update source and run mageia-update To have mageia-update always look in tainted-release for tainted versions of installed core packages perhaps might be a useful enhancement, but it would only be needed once, after enabling the tainted repo, and the negative performance effect on mageia-update might be undesirable.

Thanks for explaining.
(In reply to AngryPenguin from comment #2) > Thanks for explaining. So James was right, and it was just a media configuration error, right? Please reopen this bug report if that was not the case.
