In this case, if your 0.95 had been up2date as of the day before release, it probably would have upgraded OK, not guaranteed. Upgrades from RHL9 were thoroughly tested during the testing cycle. That doesn't mean there won't be problems for some installations. You do no one a favor by stating "I guess the Fedora team was not interested in making sure the upgrade option was working. This is an obvious thing that one should test." Good luck getting a "reasonable response" with that kind of rhetoric. Gerry
