Not always. In fact quite often that doesn't work properly. Dependency hell.
Please DON'T train your users to use --enablerepo=rawhide, or sooner or
later they WILL end up with half their distro upgraded to Rawhide because
their update required a new soname of some core library which in turn
required everything else to be upgraded to match the new soname. And of
course they won't understand what happened and why. --enablerepo=rawhide is
extremely dangerous and should NEVER be used, especially not by users who
don't know EXACTLY what they're doing.
