This last happened in rawhide after the > 2.6.18-1.2784.2.3.fc7 kernel ... there hasn't been a kernel-xen since. And not really helping matters at all is the fact that the upstream xen-unstable code base was still on 2.6.16 up until about two weeks ago. They're now up to 2.6.18, but that's still significantly behind the 2.6.20-rc that rawhide is tracking. This just ends up being another example of why we are so "upstream, upstream, upstream!" focused[1]. Jeremy [1] Since in this case, where we compromised on the upstream angle, we are now in a position where our users suffer because the upstream for Xen doesn't track the upstream of the kernel well enough. And the work to do so takes a significant amount of time. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
