Seth, I really wanted to upgrade to the new KDE. So I first said "yum update kde*". That did not work because it wanted "kdesupport" which is now obsoleted by "something else". So I tried "yum upgrade kde*" and it said there was nothing to do. All I want to do is upgrade to the new kde, but not to everything in the repository. I like to upgrade in steps vs the "all at once". I looked at the code yesterday a bit and started to play with it but decided asking you about it is a better thing to do. I guess I did not know why the "regular glob" was not allowed for the "yum upgrade" command.
