Hi, I have just noticed that there are more than 175 packages in the
temporary factory that have versions lower than 11.0, is it safe to
update yet or should I wait?
Could you give one or two examples, please?

Hes talking about lower Release tags.

Which in particular for aalib isnt true. Dave please provide example
with links to the packages or spec files.

I sent the following message with exact versions in the repository and on my
system:-

LibVNCServer-0.9.1-80.99.i586.rpm and on my system LibVNCServer-0.9.1-112.1,
OpenEXR-1.6.1-36.59.i586.rpm and on my system OpenEXR-1.6.1-47.1
aspell-en-6.0-92.75.i586.rpm and on my system aspell-en-6.0-134.1
branding-openSUSE-11.0-3.39 and on my system branding-openSUSE-11.0-12.1
sqlite2-2.8.17-133.33.i586.rpm and on my system sqlite2-2.8.17-136.1
termcap-2.0.8-980.39.i586.rpm and on my system termcap-2.0.8-989.1
x11-tools-0.1-111.70.i586.rpm and on my system x11-tools-0.1-140.1
This is a small selection from the ones I found using yast2-qt on a system with fresh install from 11.0 retail dvd, no packman or other repos (except for a kernel update for my realtek nic) packages installed and with only the http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory/standard repository enabled.
You will see the older packages highlighted in red and newer in blue. I've copied the package names direct from the repository and from rpm -qa|grep
