On a related note, I was running rawhide between test2 and F7 final. But
yum didn't pick up any change to the fedora-release package, which left
me picking up the first round of fc8 rebuilds after the dam broke,
because I was still being pointed at the development repos. I spent a
few hours on different machines downloading the F7 final packages that
had been updated and manually rolling them back with "rpm -U
--oldpackage". Ugh.
This is precisely what I wanted to avoid. Simply pushing out a updated
fedora-release to the development tree which will point users to the
general release repository before the next version updates are pushed
out would avoid this problem. This time a number of people have been
caught up by the devel - F8 changes.
