Then: 1) maybe you discover that dependencies are unsolvable (new fundamental libs, RPM version, ...) 2) maybe it installs but has some kind of problem running 3) maybe it installs and runs perfectly Option 1) is easily discovered before you do any modification to your system; very safe. Option 2) is quite unprobable, IMHO. Reversable with rpm -e, rpm -i. Option 3) has a reasonable probability. I would spend a few minutes downloading the F13 rpms and attempting some "rpm --test -Uhv" commands. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
