yum update incorrectly reports failure

I just updated OpenSSL using the "Install All Updates" from the sys info page. The message from vmin implies the update failed due to an error, but actually it worked fine. heres the output from the update page

Yes, this is a known issue. Once Webmin 1.510 is out and in the Virtualmin repositories, it will no longer happen..

It is relatively harmless though, as the packages are being installed OK.

1.510 is rolling out today, as I think I've gotten the repo build scripts fixed.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
