Well, the real thing you're looking at is whether the updates will break something. *If* the non-standard production machines don't have non-standards versions of what you're updating, such as if they're using a built-from-source php or mcrypt, rather than installed-binary-from-rpm, then you should be ok. mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
