I would definitely like to understand just how RH is treating the various packages with regard to fixes. RH treatment seems a little fuzzy on this. A package matrix showing the policy for each would be great.
Also, if I install a newer RPM of a package that was originally provided by RH on the installation CD how does up2date deal with that? Does it ignore it? Does it complain? Do I need to keep two separate RPM databases? One for RH RPMs and one for my user-installed RPMs? How do I coordinate these? An overall question would be what is the best practice for managing both RH and user-installed packages?
