No, how incredibly less annoying: There is no way to tell what in the blue blazes PackageKit is doing. The progress bar looks the same if you have a crappy connection to the server and you are downloading a 10K update as it does if you have a wonderful high speed connection and you are downloading a 100MB update. With yum, you can actually see what's happening. And unless you disable the PackageKit notifications, you find that every single time you try to run yum manually, you get a message that says PackageKit has it locked already (I think it waits till it sees you type "yum", then immediately goes off and checks for updates :-). Plus, I have better things to do than constantly dismiss the popups saying, "Hey! There's updates! Don't you want to install updates! You can't possibly have anything else to do can you? Why don't you install updates?" -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
