I know that YUM can Its a simple change on sources.list if you use apt or yum.conf if you use it. The matter is: not every single person wants to upgrade immediately. There are production server which can handle the upgrade of some packages but not a whole system, with kernel, gcc and almost everything else changing versions. So doing this by default is not a bad idea. I've tried this once, with redhat8 to a preliminar version for 9. It screwed a litlle server, and made me be a little more cautious about this... As you can see sometimes here, there are people which is still using redhat 7 - that's not uncommon. (in fact, a client of mine refuses to use anything newer than redhat 6.2 - there's special old hardware which doesn't have drivers for kernel 2.4...) -- []s Alexandre Ganso 500 FOUR vermelha - Diretor Steel Goose Moto Group
