I just realised that it might have been you on irc last night, but you left before we could actually have a conversation. In principle what you are saying here is not something that anyone disputes. However, the packages that are out there now are all security updates - and the EL* platform runs as a single package stream. If there are specific features that need >= versions of userland or deps of anykind, those are reflected in the package Requirements In this case, and specially the openfabrics code, we did some testing to make sure that nothing breaks and only pushed these packages out into the public repo's after that. If there are specific breakages, lets look at resolving those. Overall, I think its important we get the security updates out to as many people as possible - so long as we dont break things. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
