Hi!
As you might know, new version of packages are being shipped in Fedora's
updates repository, fedora-updates.
An example for it is qt4. Version 4.2 is shipped with the distribution,
but fedora-updates provides version 4.3.2.
So I tried to build a package in the buildservice which requires Qt 4.3.
But it does not build so I guess that the Fedora 7 distribution does not
include updates which may be a security risk.
Just imagine a library is being fixed, but all applications in the Build
Service are compiled against the old library which has a security flaw
in it.
Are there plans to change this?
Martin
