If you use `rpmconf` to upgrade the system configuration files supplied with the upgraded packages then some configuration files may change. After the upgrade you should verify `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`, `/etc/nsswitch.conf`, `/etc/ntp.conf` and others are expected. For example, if OpenSSH is upgraded then `sshd_config` reverts to the default package configuration. The default package configuration *does not* enable public key authentication, and allows password authentication.

|
| |
+ Every release Fedora retires a few packages. There are various reasons:
|
| |
+ the package become obsoleted, dead upstream or maintainer stepped down.
|
| |
+ Fedora no longer distribute these packages, but they are still present
|
| |
+ at your systems. You will never receive upgrades. Not even security ones.
|
| |
+ It is highly recommend to remove these packages.
