I upgraded my distros with rpi-update to the newest kernel:

uname -a
Linux raspberrypi2 4.0.5+ #797 PREEMPT Sat Jun 20 00:47:38 BST 2015 armv6l GNU/Linux

However, when I run rpi-update again, it still warns me about upgrading:

sudo rpi-update

The warning should not be issued anymore.

That is not currently supported. The intention is the warning will be removed in a forthcoming update once we are happy there aren't any significant issues with the new kernel.

You can set SKIP_WARNING=1 to avoid the requirement to acknowledge this.

Whoops, didn't realize that setting SKIP_WARNING=1 doesn't actually remove the warning message. Should work now.

@popcornmix what is the status on this one? The issue was raised june 2015 and I guess 'we' are happy with the new kernel?
