Not at all. Update in place is a derivative result of scarcity of hardware. If the design environment is for heavily virtualized "hardware", then it's much safer and simpler to update in parallel. Given also how weak RPM is in handling dependencies for multi-architecture binaries, I can't see a better method given the tools they've got. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
