Often the bug fixes end up in Cooker, not on the updates page. You're fairly
safe with Cooker rpms if the version number only differs by the rpm build
number (i.e. 2.2-14 vs. 2.2-15). I agree that Mandrake needs to put more
effort into maintaining the updates page. The bug fixes are usually in
Cooker; someone just needs to test them and make them officially available.

Subject: [expert] Where are all the FIXES for XXXX BUGS????
Hi!
I have never seen a single "Update" for some critical bugs like:
- g++ won't compile (includes not found)
- kernel won't compile if make mrproper not issued before
- uucp has wrong privileges on /var/log...
- fetchmail is missing rmail
- kpilot DOESN'T WORK AT ALL! (Jpilot works OK)
...
So what is the policy of updates by MANDRAKE????? Hey I REALLY like this
distribution and started recomending it all over, but this is not the
right way....
bye, Alen
