Deliberate breaking of upgrade paths also needs to be banned! I didn't know about this until this subthread... and I asked a rather senior packaging person about it some months ago and didn't get this information. So I think this is poorly publicized; and perhaps poorly positioned in the packaging guidelines. That said, is there a reason the update system shouldn't enforce this? That is, why allow an update to F-(n-1) that's greater than the current package in F-n (or devel)? -- Braden McDaniel <braden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
