Feature request (or plugin request)
Sometimes I wonder what the hell my system is doing downloading a
certain package (or what is was thinking when it downloaded and
installed a certain package). In such cases it would be nice to be able
to dump a dot file showing the dependency graph.
neat idea. Probably do-able as a plugin in post-depresolve
*nod* I imagine the graphs will be kind of big, but at least it's a
starting point for figuring out what your system is doing. There are at
least two python APIs to dot.
P.S. In this case I'm wonder WTF yum decided to download both the
x86_64 /and/ i386 versions of the entire gnome desktop on my first "yum
update" after installing a KDE-only system. Yay for 1.3GB downloads.
b/c more likely than not you already had both of them installed.
Nope. I did a KDE-only install (following the instructions on the
Fedora Myth(ology) site for MythTV), and I checked after the install to
see which gnome packages it had installed. I didn't see any gnome-*
packages. A "yum update" and a huge-ass download later, and I had both
x86_64 and i386 versions installed.
It was just updating them. The default behavior on installing
multiarch pkgs is to install both of them.
Are both architectures actually needed? Or is this some failsafe mode?
Can I disable it?
Thanks.
