How stable is your box going to be when it gets exploited with an old security hole for which the fix is sitting in updates-testing due to lack of QA? Don't answer that, it's a rhetorical quesiton. The point is, in order to obtain this stability you speak of, Fedora Legacy needs to make security updates in a timely manner. -Jeff -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
