And some would complain if they weren't because they need something about the newer point release, a bug fix, feature or whatever. ;) Couldn't you just exclude openoffice in your yum config and not get bothered with the updates?
I probably could, but I have better things today, so I just update it any way... Maybe yum could be modified and packages could have some way of grading updates? You know, some updates might be very important from a security or stability point of view, while others might be some where in between a minor change and a major change? I am sure it could be, but weather it is really a good idea or not is for the developers to decide. -- Rob
