+1 on both points. "yum" as a name never made a lot of sense to me either (I know it's derivation), but you could probably say the same for a lot of common commands and utilities. The UNIX tradition was for command names to be short and easy to type on a Teletype ASR33, in the days before GUIs. Hence 'ls', 'ed', 'cd' (originally 'chdir' until that was considered too long :-) etc. poc _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
