No. The issue is that in the past sometimes security updates have been rushed out with no testing and broken things badly. ;( See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Lessons For some small number of examples (yes, anyone is welcome to please add others you have run into to the page). I know of at least dbus, bind, nss and a few others that were security updates and pushe out with no testing and turned out to break things. Perhaps security updates could have a smaller timeout? Or a security group that tests them ? kevin
