That doesn't help at all, because in the end, they're still building a static image. As soon as someone ships an F10 update *after* the F11 images are released, things start breaking. It's just in the nature of a) static release images and b) how we version updates. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
