How exactly does it break? Your foo-1-4.fc3 won't contain the change made in 1-4.fc4, that is required for FC4, but must not be present in FC3. If a package requires foo >= 1-4, it's safe to assume that it requires that change, and 1-4.fc3 won't have it, so things will break. -- Alexandre Oliva http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Red Hat Compiler Engineer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org}
