The Bugfix (RHBA) and Enhancements (RHEA) updates were made into CentOS 3.5. After completing all archs (s390, s390x, ia64, x86_64, i386) and releasing new ISOs, the default released CentOS-3 was moved from 3.4 to 3.5. So, this is all the enhancement and bugfix (non-security related) updates that were released in EL4 update 5. 3.5 is available: lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-June/000308.html 3.5 is default: lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-June/000383.html --------------------------- Same is true for CentOS-4, that was moved to from CentOS 4.0 to CentOS 4.1 yesterday as well. For info see the following from the announce list... 4.1 is available: i386: lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-June/000310.html ia64: lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-June/000309.html x86_64: lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-June/000387.html ...... 4.1 is default: lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-June/000389.html -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

If that's the case, why would an up to date 3.4 download everything again? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
