I just noticed that my Fedora 10 X86_64 installation DVD has a fair number of packages labelled fc9 rather than fc10. In fact some are fc<earlier>. 1 is fc6 8 are fc7 16 are fc8 355 are fc9 2272 are fc10 Why would the packagers not rebuild all packages for a release? Is there not a risk that some of these packages would be built against libraries that have changed? I didn't think that the ABI for fc9 was supported by fc10. It turns out that all fc[678] packages included are "noarch". So this is *probably* safe, but not guaranteed. I came across this when I could not boot the Fedora 10 Live CD and found that the problem was in the savage X11 viddeo driver. That driver is an fc9 package. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=491488 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
