Thanks, that fixed it.

BTW, really hope we can update to F11/F12 sometime soon. I've now met
frustrations on several occasions where F9 causes inconvenience:
 - F9 hplip wasn't new enough for the office printer in paraguay (OK,
you can laugh at this one, but sometimes limited resources means you
have to try!)
 - F9 kernel wasn't new enough for the ethernet adapter on the
development XS in paraguay
 - F9 revisor downloads all packages twice, a real killer for Nepal :(
but this is fixed in latest revisor on non-ancient build setups
