There is a yum-3.2.8-2 update for F7, just as there is for F8. You can check all the other updates for at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ There won't be any more updates for FC6, as it has now reached it's end of life. > Is this a "nudge" from redhat or the fedora project to get people to > switch to a release that still has other unresolved issues? I don't think so. There are still plenty of updates for the software in F7. Sure, there are probably a bit more for F8, but that's mainly due to F8 being released fairly recently. As more people try it and report bugs or suggestion improvements, packages get updated. The Gnome desktop release is also pretty new, and updates for that set of applications has come along for what shipped in F8. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Few things are harder to put up with than a good example. -- Mark Twain (1835-1910)
