OLPC-4 is the Fedora disttag where the XO software base is being ported from Fedora 9 to Fedora 10. Fedora 10 was merged into joyride as of build joyride-2451.

This page details the major regressions which are related to fallout from the distro upgrade.

Addressing some may require modifications to Fedora packages similar to those in Distro version migration nastiness.
