you'd be surprised how much can get done b/t 2 and 4 in the morning.

latest daily for 2.0 should work ok.

The best bet would be to do this (for 8.0)
download the rpm 4.1.1 test packages,
install them
install the yum-phoebe daily build
point to a yum repo of 9 (none posted yet afaict)
run yum list updates

make sure it reads it all correctly.

it worked for me very nicely from phoebe3 to 9. I'll be testing 8.0 -> 9
probably later this week.

you shouldn't but I'm not 100% on that. the one for 8 should be the same
for python but I'm not sure the glibc changes will affect it.
