Is this for Fedora Core?

There are several distro's that do this already if you are looking for
a source based one.

I used Sourcemage and liked it.

If I didn't work in IT, I might run it, but I prefer Red Hat and Fedora.

hi ,
I am writing a script that will first check for the update and then
install the latest version by downloading it and building it from
source.
now my question is this, is there any way that in BASH i get to know
about the latest version
i.e. software is p3scan and the latest version is 2.3
now how to know about that through bash ??? help me out
