Hi,
I have been wondering about the lack of updates for sylpheed on Fedora.
Neither the stable 3.2 nor the new develomental 3.3.1 has been provided:
I looked up Bugzilla requests but they seem not to have been fulfilled.
Is sylpheed on the road to becoming an orphan in Fefora?
Many thanks,
Ranjan

Some web browsers do let you do that. Those with with the extremely

However, do this with caution, and test it out. I'

But os-prober has put in lot of menuentries, many of which
are either blatantly wrong, or outdated,
which I would like to remove from grub.cfg.
fedora wiki generally advises it is not safe to edit grub.cfg.
Can I safely edit grub.cfg if

If you use plain "kill", a SIGTERM is sent to the process. If you send
a SIGHUP, there will be no data loss ("kill -HUP pid").

Can you share how you did it?
I've been running a local POP3 server, because I've never been able to
figure out how to make "direct" access work.

CTRL+C doesn't work for me neither! But you don't need to know the process
id of yum, "kill `pidof yum`" will automatically replace the process id in

later but there is no graceful way to tell yum to stop!
