When F-13 is released, F-12 is history except for bug-fixes, security updates, and occasional upgrades that incorporate improvements for issues reported for F-12 and older. To bring "most software" in F-12 and F-11 in sync with F-13 is beyond the scope of creating distribution that is preparing and testing a new release every six months. If somebody finds F-(N) to be lacking, there is F-(N+1). > (e.g. I don't like not being > able to update some of my gtk packages, because the gtk maintainers > don't update their package in older releases.) Where to start and where to stop with upgrade madness? What may be feasible for Gtk, would be a much bigger task for GNOME and other frameworks. You can update your packages in the current dist release and Rawhide. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
