But apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work well on RH boxen, does it?

i.e. -- KRUD 9 to KRUD 10 -- via a one-line command without anything
breaking?

That's what I *love* about dist-upgrade on Debian... no other distro has
ever really had it.  Not that worked correctly anyway.  Debian not only has
it but solicits folks to test it before release!

(RedHat has no financial interest in supporting a feature like that... while
they might eventually get there, it can't be a priority to a company that
would prefer folks go out and buy another boxed set at each major release
number?)
