package info for software updates

Not sure if the package updater software is under KDE project, or if I should post it on Fedora forum, but the suggestion is to have some additional information about the available packages, e.g. what features they add/fix or if they're a low/medium/critical security update, etc. something like http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/

You'd have better luck posting this in the Fedora forums. KDE does not create or distribute packages. They only create the source code, and then distributions get those and package them for their users. So the packaging system, their contents, and their descriptions is pretty much a distribution-specific matter.

OS: Kubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Drake) | KDE 3.5.3
Computer Specs: AMD Sempron 2200 1.5Ghz | VIA KM266 Pro 8235 chipset | nVidia GeForce MX 4000 128MB DDR-RAM 32-bit AGP 8x
