It's a hack ... but you could probably install a newer Fedora or SL7 user-space into a chroot and run the application from that chroot. Look at --installroot in yum. You just need to have the proper repo files handy which yum (outside the chroot) would use - but only when you do the first install. Afterwards, you can use 'yum update' inside the chroot as before.

Something along the lines of

    yum install --enablerepo fedora --installroot /opt/fedora-root @core

(given that you have the fedora repos handy)

When that's done, you could just do:

      chroot /opt/fedora
      yum localinstall $PKG

At least in theory :)

I could use Fedora if I must in the manner suggested above, but I would prefer OpenSuSE to Fedora. The other option is to wait for SL7 to leave beta and become production -- at which time we will routinely update all of our servers and workstations to the highest SL production version available (that is, SL 7x to replace the SL 6x we currently use).
