Its actually something that needs to be fixed in RPM I think. Its only broken
for media installs or NFS ISO because of the way that rpm prepares a
transaction and needs the headers for this, and we don't have access to the
headers from the other CDs, so ordering gets really bad. If you're doing
http/ftp/nfs(non-iso) installs, you should be safe to enable updates at
install time.
That's not an entirely fair characterization -- it's really inherent to
how the entire stack works and a fix could go into any of a number of
places. Each has its own level of making me want to puke :-/
It's definitely something that needs some more looking at before saying
anything definitive for F7.
