one minor nit. it might be useful to allow that field to look like: Dec 12 08:09:38 hostname yum(yum-cli): Updated: openssh-server.x86_64 4.3p2-14.fc6 Dec 12 08:09:38 hostname yum(yumex): Updated: openssh-server.x86_64 4.3p2-14.fc6 Dec 12 08:09:38 hostname yum(pirut): Updated: openssh-server.x86_64 4.3p2-14.fc6 Dec 12 08:09:38 hostname yum(yum-updatesd): Updated: openssh-server.x86_64 4.3p2-14.fc6 so you can distinguish how the update/install/etc was performed. -sv _______________________________________________ Yum-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum-devel
