I've just hit a curiosity related to Anaconda. I upgraded two machines via Anaconda from FC4 to FC5 and only just now discovered that I still have several FC4 kernel-devel packages on the upgraded boxes. Is this a bug or intentional behavior? There was a discussion about this late in March; see the thread "slow FC4 to FC5 upgrade" on or before 24 March, although I don't think anyone considered this to be a bug. I can't see any reason to retain the prior version's kernel-devel packages if the kernels themselves are removed.
The kernel-devel packages dont have a explicit dependency on its equivalent kernel packages. This is useful for building modules against the older kernels and for systems like DKMS (which is Fedora Extras)
