Hi,
Random question... I've only just noticed that mgaapplet/rpmdrake
started telling me that I had no media... is this just because we've
"flipped a switch" telling it to only update media marked as update
while 99% of the cauldron cycle it would update all media?
I've not actually used the GUI tools until this cycle (in previous years
I always ran --auto-update manually) in order to try and actually use
them and make sure they work etc, hence why I'm perhaps a little more
ignorant than I should be :D
On stable releases mgaapplet checks only media marked as update media.
On cauldron it checks release media, whether or not they are marked as
update media. Since the release has been updated to Mageia 2, you are
now running a stable release. When cauldron is re-opened and the release
is changed back to cauldron, it should start checking the release media
again.
I'm not certain if on cauldron it checks all enabled media (i.e.
including testing media) or just the release media. I enable only the
release media on cauldron.
