Even its developer seems to disagree with that: https://github.com/wgwoods/fedup/issues/21 [ Add --distro-sync mode #21 ] There's a long thread on test@ list about broken deps during/after a dist upgrade. > It looks for packages to be "upgraded" to the highest version available > for the requested release of fedora.

Normal updates for F20 and older can have a higher EVR than packages in F21 and would be seen as "newer" by RPM version comparison. That's a problem with Fedora's update release process and not limited to the updates-testing repo. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
