What I do to download the latest package from a specific tag (e.g. dist-f11-updates-candidate) is: # koji download-build --latestfrom dist-f11-updates-candidate --arch i386 --arch i586 --arch x86_64 kernel If you know a specific build id you want to download: # koji download-build --arch i386 --arch i586 --arch x86_64 <build#> You will need to adjust --arch accordingly I believe. > p.s. what's the point of that search box anyway? if i type in > "kernel", i get no hits. what's up with *that*? It depends on what's selected in the drop down list (Packages, Builds, Users, Tags etc...). If I search for "kernel" with Packages selected, it takes me to http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8. When in doubt, add glob patterns. To search for anything gnome... search for "gnome*" (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/search?terms=gnome*&type=package&match=glob). Thanks, James
