I understand, but I would really appreciate it if the updates created
by Fedora Legacy would not just disappear. Any chance (like I asked
before in another post) they could be hosted in a legacy dir under
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/ or something? The
download.fedora.redhat.com site still hosts all base, updates and
extras packages for all Fedora releases since version 1, so I imagine
adding the FL created packages shouldn't take a lot of extra space.
Nils.
