The motivation for this system was that when we managed to break PackageKit's notification system, we couldn't use the PK notification system to tell people to install the update to fix the PK notification system. =) (I suppose if we have two mechanisms, we'd have to try really hard to break both of them at once. But I'm not really sure if a generic mechanism for us to spam the user is a great idea.) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
