yes-  folks that have recent versions of the beta verified that it has 
rpm 4.1.1.

newb comments/question:  suse seems to do updates with "update" rpms. 
these rpms are not full versions of the packages they update. do other 
distributions do this?  i could be wrong about this.  if not, will this 
stand in the way of using yum for suse?
