Re: old packages

2016-07-31 Thread Kelly Miller
I don't know about all of them, but I can tell you that the system-config-* packages are pretty much all obsolete (lvm, boot and firewall definitely are), and smart has been obsolete on Fedora for a number of versions now (I used to use it as my package manager, to be honest). I believe systemd-ui

Yeah, I for one noticed that Anaconda frequently has trouble updating the status message when it's installing. In fact, you can force it to update if you quickly go into and then leave the Root Password and/or User sections. I thought it was fixed in 21, but maybe I'm thinking of

Only problem with 22 I've run into so far is that there's something wrong with NFS. Otherwise, everything seems to be fine. On Sun, Apr 12, 2015 at 9:14 PM, jd1008 wrote: > Has anyone run fedup to 22? > > If yes, any problems with f22? > > Thanx. > -- > users mailing list > users@lists.fedorapr

Sorry, I meant the former. I used to like going through Smart to see what packages are available, but without the RPM groupings it's harder to do in Yumex (plus Fedora is phasing them out). On Fri, Mar 6, 2015 at 10:08 AM, Tim wrote: > > On Thu, 2015-03-05 at 16:58 -0500, Kelly M

Best Way to Handle Packages

2015-03-05 Thread Kelly Miller
I've mentioned it here before, but I'm not a huge fan of the current options for checking out and installing Fedora packages. I notice a lot of people mention just using yum/dnf directly, but I'm wondering what people normally use to just check out new packages. So how do people on this list norm

GUI that uses RPM Groups?

2014-10-17 Thread Kelly Miller
I've been wondering about this for quite some time, but my recent troubles with finding a good GUI installer for Fedora 20 has brought it to the forefront. Why is it that none of the GUI's for yum & dnf support the old RPM groups? Were they left out of yum and PackageKit or something? And can so
