the sequence of events was:
1) new "everything" install of FC4
2) activate *only* FC4's "updates-released" repo
3) "yum update"
i tried to make the update as simple as possible by pulling only
from the regular updates repo. this sort of thing is, in fact,
something i started to think about recently -- should a new install of
FC *always* be updateable, regardless of how many updates have piled
up in the queue?
or might there be problems given how much newer some of those
updates might be? just curious.
