Hardly. Much of the time updates are pretty self contained and independent of other updates. Just because I want say pidgin updated doesn't mean I have to get OpenOffice.org updated too, or just because I want newer emacs doesn't mean I have to get newer eclipse+java, so on and so forth. There really is a difference between targeted updates +deps and the firehose. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
