Maybe you'll have better luck, if you look. Anyway, in a recent thread that mentioned the fact that fc6 stuff was in the CentOS repository, it was pointed out that Red Hat kept some fc6 tags on stuff they included in the final release (of 5.0?). There are probably other packages that are similarly tagged. Because CentOS tries to be near 100% upstream-compatible, they have also kept the tags. HTH -- Bill
