There are a lot of folk who are ALREADY using yum, and this this is nothing new for them. > Or, forcing them to install and learn yum is okay, but letting them > use the software they already know how to us and already have > installed (apt, rpm, etc) is wrong? Perhaps a better doc for the rpm upgrade should go like: "If you are using yum for most/all of your package manager needs, then upgrading rpm is unnecessary for you as yum does not trigger the problems. If you use apt or rpm directly for most of your work, upgrading to this release of rpm will limit the amount of problems you have." -- Jesse Keating RHCE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedoralegacy.org) Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
