-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just look at the "latest" sendmail available for Solaris 8.
Far worse than the complaints about Debian stable. So, don't complain about Fedora. You don't like it - fix it Mr. Know-it-all. It's GPL and /community/ based. You want to use it? You want it to suit your needs? /Participate/ in the community! You don't like the updater? You might contribute RPMS for apt-get or the Mandrake updater - ported to the Fedora back-end. Maybe a secure transport for Kickstart - with the rpmfind db? The sky is the limit - - if you don't wait for other people to take you there, and /complian/ that they aren't!
