Right, but my comment was more geared towards the fact that installing from F11-Alpha and trying to run 'yum update' at one point wasn't possible without first running 'yum update rpm' and then 'yum update'. I think that is a flaw in the priority of package installation, if it had first checked for a new yum or new rpm package, installed those and then re-invoked itself then the problem would be solved. -Adam On Fri, Mar 20, 2009 at 4:38 AM, M A Young <m.a.young@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, 19 Mar 2009, Paul W.
