None of that junk is in updates today, that's why people find it broken all the time. The test system using the staging repo can either run "yum update" with no errors, or it can't. If it gets no errors, the staging repo becomes the updates repo. If it does get errors, the updates repo is left alone until the staging repo gets fixed and everyone who pushed an update since the last time updates was working gets mail with the yum update transcript. Yes, that means nothing goes in updates if even one thing is broken in the staging repo. But that is NOT a problem. Virtually everyone trying to run "yum update" with the current process is getting errors and giving up till things work anyway. -- 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 Have a question?
