… and the only way you can prevent it is to test Fedora 10 Alpha.
Fortunately this is stupid easy. Grab an Alpha ISO live image, load it on to a USB device, or just run it straight up in a virtual environment either using virt-manager
or from the command line:
su -c 'qemu -cdrom Fedora-10-Alpha-i686-Live-KDE -m 512 -std-vga'
Then test the five things most important to you in the upcoming version of Fedora.
Whatever you use Fedora for, there are at least five tasks, pieces of software, or bundles of tools that are important to you.
Who knows? You might find and help get fixed a bug that could have made it all the way to the final version, where it would annoy you to no end.
