Over the weekend we ran into a few more bugs with Fedora Core 6 that we

decided were important enough to fix. There were some multilib compose

issues (wrong packages landing in the wrong dirs), some translation files

that would cause tracebacks in things like anaconda (whoops), and a

fedora-release package that forgot to enable updates (double whoops). For

these reasons and a few others, we decided to respin the release candidate

tree and push the release date out another couple of days.

 

The current plan is to spin a release candidate this evening with some last

minute fixes, and start the sync. Validation has gone very well up to this

point and baring any blow ups in the spin process, the release looks very

solid. We're planning to release on Thursday Oct 19th. This should give the

mirrors enough days to sync up. If things blow up horribly and we have to

spin again tomorrow, depending on what time we have to respin we may slip

until next week, as releasing on Fridays or Mondays gets you the wrath of the

mirror admins (:

 

I want to thank you all for playing along and helping us to make FC6 the best

release yet!
