I patch my workstation weekly. Almost all weeks, both the kernel and (a?)kmod-nvidia show up in the list of things being updated; very rarely does neither get updated. So the akmod package for nVidia drivers is rebuilt on my system almost every week. So it seems that I should submit a bug as suggested. I assume no one has yet done that.
What is the URL for the RFA/rpmfusion bugzilla? (By the way, what does "RFE" stand for?)
What I should request is that akmod-nvidia be enhanced to clean up after itself each time the akmod package is rebuilt, and suggest that the enhanced akmod-nvidia install an appropriate default /etc/logrotate.f file for that purpose? Have I got the naming and terminology correct? Any other suggestions on wording this will be appreciated.
thanks, Bill. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
