Not specific to RH8, but in 7.2 I has an upgrade of apache save the old config file and install the new config file in it's place httpd.conf. Also, On a couple of Proliants we have, a kernel upgrade addded a driver for the SmartArray 5i, and it was loaded before the driver for to SmartArray 432 where the disks were installed. This re4ndered the system unbootable with the new kernel. It took me some time to figure out what was happening and be able to correct it. Another one. In 7.0, an upgrade of openssl lacked the version dependency for apache and apache wouldn't start after you upgraded openssl (after the aforementioned incident with apache I was somewhat reluctant to upgrade apache without extensive testing). I had to downgrade openssl until I had time to throughly test the apache upgrade. While we are on this subject, does anyone know if there is a linux distro which uses a system like BSD ports to manage software? That would be quite interesting to try.
