If not by default, then maybe as an option? I'm willing to come up with easy instructions for how folks can keep local copies. re:ISO I might change my mind, but ISO are not updated with new RPMs. People would need to be in the habit of updating after installing if they want the latest fixes. rationale i gave last time: i'm not uploading a binary that wasn't tested, and I'm not testing ISOs for every fix. ----------------------------------------------------- I know this entails more work, but for sanity sake, would it not make sense to have a log kept that shows all patches that are applied to a given release. From a troubleshooting standpoint, it would be nice to be able to open a file that shows what has been installed since the last release. Is there a possibility of creating a Patch.log file that get placed into a specific folder to show what patches are applied, when the patches are installed, that gets moved during a complete software update. If you look at many of the other products on the market, they will show you a list of applied patches, it's the only way to know what is running on the system, versus what is required to run on the system.
