One such huge difference is the existence of mono or not. Fedora has mono, RHEL does not. Lots of things do link against mono in Fedora, or build mono subpackages, but don't in RHEL. That's a whole can of worms to get into when trying to do an update for something. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
