Hi, all.
I know this has been discussed on here before but I'm struggling to stop 'yumBackend.py' hogging the CPU & sending the load averages over 2.00.
I've disabled it via the GUI in Software & rebooted but it's still running every five minutes.
Is there a way of dealing with this via the cli? This is on Fedora 20.
This is with gnome-shell active and logged into? This is probably spawned by pk-offline-update. You can read more about this here:
http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2013/11/18/offline-updates-in-fedora-20/
And to disable it
systemctl disable packagekit-offline-update.service
systemctl stop packagekit-offline-update.service
Of course, you're now going to need to get updates manually some other way
Hi, Chris.
Thanks for that. I actually settled it in the end by disabling it via
DConf Editor.
I take it running '# yum update' will still work?
Cheers,
Phil...
