If you don't have the necessary packages installed, it attempts to locate them in configured repositories and add them to the download list while simultaneously parsing the newly added packages own pre-requisites files/packages. This of course really isn't about pulseaudio though. Craig -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
