I've noticed that many packages are now being developed only
in RH5.2 (newer and newer versions) - probably RH5.1's "updates"
contain only those which **required** upgrade due to some
important bugs/security issues.
My Q is: is it safe/advisable to upgrade RH5.1 system using RH5.2
RPMs? Do the minor releases of RH differ in anything more "basic"
than just a list of RPMs with different versions?
regards, Michal.
