I *think* what the OP is stating, is that he see's the email about updates, but doesn't seem to be able to download them soon after. And to answer, that depends on if your using a mirror or directly from Fedora's servers themselves. But they have to be built first (or are they built *then* the email is sent?) and then time to get out to the mirrors. Maybe someone in the know can give a quick explanation on how that all lays out and answer your question better. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY Fedora Project - Bugzapper, Tester, User, etc.. miketc302@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
