There seems to be this desire to put oddball version/release
identifiers for
packages. First, in FC2-T1 there was util-linux 2.12pre-3 being updated with
2.12-4 but rpm and up2date consider the older package to be newer.
Hm, the first one really shouldn't have been named XXpre. That's
a beta release, though, so, what's done is done. We'll try and avoid
that in the future.
Now, for
FC1 the recent update for tcpdump has 3.7.2-7.1 being updated by
3/7/2-7.fc1.1 but (again) the older packages is considered newer (and the
same is true for libpcap 0.7.2-7.1 being updated by 0.7.2-7.fc1.1).
That's a bug. Please put this in bugzilla.
