If anything this is reason to be happy - since it shows that many packages
are being updated frequently - like they should be. I suppose you installed
from a RC install disk (release candidate). That came out more than a few
days ago, and since then there must have been a lot of fine-tuning and
updates. I should not think there is any cause for concern here :)
