Has anyone tried to upgrade and see if this really fixes Quarks problems?  If I have time I will do it and make a FAQ on the process - that will not happen very soon however.

I forced the update to install.  Quark never failed in about 30 minutes of attempting to get errors as I normally do.  However - obviously this brute install broke a LOT of things.  Basically, I now have one wide open share to this test machine.
I am not knowledgable enough to create my own RPM that will do this elegantly.  I hope that knowing it works well (in my realworld tests) will promp someone to spend some time on it.  Better yet - a Netatalk update blade would be SWEET.
