Pidora 2014 (Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix) Release

We're excited to announce the release of Pidora 2014 --
an optimized Fedora Remix for the Raspberry Pi.
It is based on a brand new build of Fedora for the ARMv6
architecture with greater speed and includes packages
from the Fedora 20 package set.

Fedora for the Raspberry Pi kinda sucked before, as most of it was built for ARM v5, and performance was very poor compared to distros built properly for ARM v6. This new build is looking pretty nice, except for one thing (at least so far)....

Many RPMs are looking for an installed RPM called kernel-devel, but the installed package is called raspberrypi-kernel-devel. This prevents me installing many of the available RPMs.

Regards,
Steve

This was the issue, I referred too earlier, workaround was with a direct koji path rpm kernel install, then also picking up the headers & devel using yum. The rest followed nicely for a complete update ;
