Find Trailing Packages

This is a script to run after upgrading from the previous Fedora release to the current respin, in order to check for un-upgraded trailing packages, dupes, and other potential upgrade problems.

The script

find-trailing-packages.sh

The script's not perfect, but it works well enough for now.

Example output for f7 default -> f8-20071218:

[root@localhost ~]# ./find-trailing-packages.sh /mnt/f8respin/
