Sorry I was not on the loop, I am am the clement designer/maintainer. So If I goofed, I take the blame. According my understanding of Clement thread, seems there is 2 issues. 1) Why there is a repo defined within clement?. I defined it (before clement was included within extras), such if was easier for me to support site where clement was installer (customers of mine). Is it a good idea?, yes (may be no), such I set a clement repo link to "enable=0" and user can take the very last version from our site (conceptually seems no really different than somebody taking a tar file and upgrading from a master site). Right, problem the repos definition doesn't fit very well as we include distribution tag within the repo (we support many clement distribution (RH7.3 -> FC6, CTOS, MV2006, ....). I am ready to listen to peer suggestion about this, but I think a sysadmin should be able to reach the very last version (bleeding edge) in more convenient way than going to a web site. In same time I do not think extras should have a potentially not stable version included. 2) The way I updated the FC6 with 2-1.241 was rather "blunt". Sorry about this, My purpose was to have the same (stable) version in devel (FC7) and FC6. According my quick reading of comment about this subject I should had update the tar file and check CVS diff.... Ok, my fault.
