KDE make major changes between 4.x and 4.y. The bugfix releases are one level down. 4.2.1 vs. 4.2 is a bugfix release, but 4.3 vs. 4.2.1 is not. It's exactly the same as the GNOME situation - 2.24.1 vs. 2.24.0 is a bugfix update, 2.26.0 vs. 2.24.1 is not. Most distributions would not bump KDE from 4.2 to 4.3 in their stable update repositories. -- 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
