It may have a higher NVR than the last thing you built on devel/, therefor you need to do a build on devel/. That should all be the same and there should be a build done on devel/.

I'd like to send something. I really would. I'd like to have an hour or so to draft it up and make it informative. Unfortunately I'd also like to have a rawhide this week. The most I can commit to doing is answering questions as they come up, as I have a moment or two of not looking at code. :( I do hear though that others are preparing such documents and I will gladly review them for accuracy, and thank them profusely for creating them. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
