Hey, I mainly use Fedora 7 for web server purposes but i'm currently missing the updates for both php and mysql. The last php package for F7 : php-5.2.2-3.i386.rpm The latest MySQL package for F7 : mysql-5.0.37-2.fc7.i386.rpm And i would like to have them both updated to: php 5.2.3 and MySQL 5.0.41.. i always thought that Fedora would update packages as long as it where no major releases.. but it seems like even some security updates (php 5.2.3 is mostly a security update release) fail to make it in the updates.
There is no policy against major releases. It is upto the maintainers to decide on pushing new versions into updates. Your best bet would be file reports on bugzilla for both these packages and make the php report as a security issue.
