Essentially its a set of localized default directories for + #common use (like documents, music, pictures, and downloads). These + #directories appear by default as bookmarks in the gtk file selector, and + #some applications can them as an app-specific default starting location + #in the file selector, or as default for e.g. the download directory + #setting. Users can also configure these directories as they like, either + #by just renaming or moving the directories in nautilus, or manually by + #editing ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs. + - = Software Management = + === Software Management === The performance for the `yum` software management utility has been greatly improved in Fedora 7. The repository metadata parser has now been implemented in C. A new mirror management infrastructure also ensures better mirror selection and, in most cases, faster performance. The '''Pirut''' package management tool and the '''Pup''' software update utility are based on `yum`, so their performance is likewise improved. -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
