I updated from (a clean install of) os124 to os125 via olpc-update which proceeded fine.
However, all the applications that have been added in Gnome disappeared and had to be
reinstalled. Fortunately, user application data/configs in the home directory persisted,
so only apps should be yum installed again.
I can appreciate that Gnome is not a priority, but is there and likely to be used. Would
be nice if user additions could persist through olpc-update. It is conceivable that
deployments may use Gnome apps too, and shouldn't be forced to reinstall after an
update.
I guess this is a feature request...
