No, that would only work for people who haven't downloaded it yet, or who explicitly reinstall. A version bump seems like the best way to ensure it gets picked up without any effort on the user's part. Too bad we don't have anything comparable to yum's presto mode that makes delta downloading easier for simple things like adding an x bit. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
