If you mean in general why do things sometimes get downgraded in F14, then there are a couple of possibilities. After things end up in updates-testing, they can be found to have problems and get removed. This this would result in you having in installed version later than the latest available version. They can also get moved from updates-testing to stable. The stable repo is getting rebuilt once a day at a relatively consistent time. The updates-testing repo gets rebuilt out of sync with this. So moved updates can disappear from updates-testing up to about a day before they show up in the stable repo. So when you check for updates you might not see the one you got from testing that is one its way to stable. But after a short while it will be available again. This is pretty much just an issue with the branched release if you have updates-testing enabled. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
