Yeah, it seems like F12 material. Going with a beta version of critical infrastructure like RPM strikes me as sheer insanity. Or have we learned nothing from how badly the still-in-progress RPM update was mismanaged? These things need to be taken *slowly*.
I do not think the still-in-progress rpm update was mismanaged at all.
Back that claim up or don't make it.
The large number of complaints seen in this mailing list over the past week seem to me to be more than sufficient evidence that it was done without adequate preparation or lead time.
I'm personally still ticked off that I'm being forced to update my development workstation to F-10 immediately in order to continue doing useful work on rawhide packages. I don't have time for that right now. Since F-9 is still supported, isn't it a management failing to have allowed this to happen without a plan to make mock on F-9 work?
Then you're wrong:
yum update rpm* yum*
that should be about it.
