Re: How to make yum history show more than the last 20 transactions?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Take my example. I have 137 yum history transactions on this server, the first one from march 2010

Now that I have upgraded to FC15 I have made several updates, additions and removals. (more than 20)

I wanted to look up the yum transaction where I did the system upgrade (transaction 116) while tracking some bugs in my system, but the only way I could do it was by

>yum history list 116

I found out it was that transaction number by going all the way from 100 forward, listing one by one until I found it out. instead of issuing 16 yum history commands.

If I had a list 100-118 or something similar I could have found out the transaction number in just one command.

Stomach says such a config option isn't implemented because a use-case is
missing. Recording the last _few_ transactions makes sense, as it can be
helpful when chasing down some problem related to package installs. And 20
looks like a sane default. Recording the last 100 transactions (or more)
sounds questionable. IMO, at least.

Perhaps you can expand on your scenario a bit?
