Frank - This happens with the Linux development installs on a regular basis. Fedora, I know, consistently. First. I understand why there is this problem. And second I understand your policy of not supporting alpha and beta software. And I agree with this policy. Too many moving targets. Might I suggest that you post this as a 'known' situation since it happens so often. No one will read it of course, does anyone actually read release notes :-) but it might help some.
