the information in the release notes includes which
srpm packages where removed and which rpm packages
were added to the system. I guess this information is
available from redhat's build system. It would nice to
have a script or any automated way to find out what
has changed between say fc3 and fc4 test1 and so on.

Elliot:

Is it possible/easy to get a list of which packages were added, removed,
and deprecated between FC3 and FC4?  Is there a tool we can use to go
fishing ourselves?

thx - Karsten

Heh, thanks.  Elliot had given the magic formula to me, but I forgot to
reply back to the list with the information. :)

I used treediff on Monday 14 March to generate the added, changed, and
moved out of core lists that are in the test1 relnotes in the Wiki:
