There might be a problem if the conflicting package is not available from any repository, but in general, does the idea seem sound?
Technically... this is possible... the 'security' label is available in the updateinfo.xml.gz now being generated for updates to fc6. Whether or not such a plugin is rational or even sane, will be a matter of opinion based on individual administrator situations. This would never be appropriate as something to install by default, and should only be used by people who know wtf they are doing. You would most certaintly want the plugin be advenced enough so admins could identify a list of 'important' packages which should not be allowed to break in the effort to force a security update. Its one think to break liferea it's another to break the deps to httpd, if the machine is primarily a webserver. -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
