However, Fedora Extras will be built on a maintained build server so that the binary Joe gets is the same binary you can get as well. As for environment, again, most end-users are pulling SOME 3rd party packages from SOMEwhere now anyway. Making it easier for YOU to match their environment by having them all in Extras, now isn't that a BONUS? -- Jesse Keating RHCE (http://geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (http://www.fedoralegacy.org) GPG Public Key (http://geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
