My reaction was not on this specific release but with this sentence :  « Never install packages until there is an announcement. » And also with
this one : « If you need to do installs all the time, and can not postpone until the repo settle. Consider rsyncing the repo after a release,
and use that for installs. » This sound crazy to me.
