No, in my opinion it's a bug in the distro-sync command (or a not yet implemented corner-case) where downgrading a set of packages requires adding back an obsolete/replaced package. For example: polkit-desktop-policy used to be a real package, then has been made a package capability instead. http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/yum or Yum upstream... -- Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) - Linux 3.5.0-2.fc17.x86_64 loadavg: 0.17 0.08 0.06 -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
