The orphaned version in FE 5 is 1.2.5 and for some reason, the version in FE 4 is 1.2. I build and commit 1.3 to rawhide and then add it to FE 5 and FE 4. What would be nice is for the request not to do a new import, but to drag the srpm from 1.3 and have that replace the versions in FE5 and FE4 after ditching the existing versions. Sorry if that was not clear - I am somewhat rushed today :-( TTFN Paul -- "Wenn eine große Vision zu groß ist, kann sie dich töten - du überschreitest deine Grenzen in der sicheren Überzeugung, den vor dir liegenden Weg zu kennen." - Linus Torvals
