I could have sworn this was documented in the package update wiki page, but it's not (please somebody wanna throw it in there somewhere?) You can request a buildroot override, which allows you to build your packages against something that hasn't gone stable yet. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/SOP/BuildRootOverrides is what releng uses to describe the task, but that's not quite appropriate for end user documentation. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
