Description of problem:

Updated from F18 -> F19 using:

  yum --releasever=19 --disableplugin=presto distro-sync -y

and now, yum list updates shows:

kernel-devel.x86_64                                                                                                  3.9.9-302.fc19                                                                                          updates
kernel-modules-extra.x86_64                                                                                          3.9.9-302.fc19                                                                                          updates


However, the current kernel installed is:

3.9.11-200.fc18.x86_64

Why did we go backwards in version number for the kernel?

Comment 1 Josh Boyer 2013-07-25 13:49:49 UTC
F19 is in the middle of a rebase to the 3.10 kernel.  An update for 3.10.3 should be hitting the repositories shortly.

F18 won't rebase until a bit later, and there were fixes in the meantime so a newer build was pushed out.  This happens from time to time but we try to limit it as much as possible.
