Description Mads Kiilerich 2011-09-28 17:04:49 UTC

The content of generic-release-16-0.2.noarch is very different from what is in fedora-release-16-0.9.noarch and it is currently not really usable as anything but a place-holder.

Especially:
* the relevant yum repos are not enabled
* the right keys are not included

I would expect generic-release to be a real alternative to fedora-release, and I would expect it to be updated whenever fedora-release is updated.

Comment 1 Tom "spot" Callaway 2011-09-28 17:15:03 UTC

generic-release is done as a convenience only. While I'm happy to update it when it gets out of sync, please don't "expect" anything.
