This number is kind of irrelevant as nobody will have to install them all. And how was this counted? I see 2384 stable updates, but they are tagged F13 final, so they are no updates although they went trough the update system. I see 75 pending updates ATM. > biggest 5 are: > > 6.2M wesnoth-1.8.1-1.fc13.x86_64.rpm > 12M hanazono-fonts-20100222-2.fc13.noarch.rpm > 48M xmoto-0.5.3-1.fc13.x86_64.rpm > 260M wesnoth-data-1.8.1-1.fc13.noarch.rpm > 318M openarena-0.8.5-1.fc13.noarch.rpm Although I'm one of the persons who opposed to the high number of updates in the past I don't see anything wrong with these. I don't have any of them installed so there is nothing for me to update. But people who play these games will surely appreciate the new upstream versions. This being said I think we should decrease the number of * useless updates. New upstream versions of a game do not fall into this category, they are useful for the gamers. * updates that affect a large count of users and don't offer much value. > ...the last being particularly "nice", in that the package hasn't been > updated for almost a year but now we get 2 300MB+ presents at once. I only see one openarea update in bodhi, openarena-0.8.5-1.fc13. I agree however that this update should have come earlier as 0.8.5 was already released on February 23rd. > Welcome to the new Fedora updates, much like the old Fedora updates. > Hey, at least Kevin should be happy. Please keep in mind that the new update policy is not yet active. Regards, Christoph -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
