That seems like extra and unnecessary work. You doesn't do anything without telling you, so "yum --enablrepo=\*testing update foo" is going to tell you more about what dependencies are needed than "yum localinstall foo.rpm". I install packages from updates-testing all the time; I'll do a "yum --enablerepo=\*testing check-update" and look for packages that are "interesting" to me (things that I use that I might would notice a problem, things that I have already had issues with, etc.). I've found at least one bug I can remember in a testing package, filed it, and it got fixed before the release to updates. I haven't usually given karma though; partly because it isn't easy to tell what I'm running that came from *testing ("yum list install | grep testing" isn't very helpful because of pretty-printing for 80 columns, even on a wider terminal). -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
