Especially multi-level undo. Even undoing the last transaction may result in problems, because almost no package downgrade has been tested (since package updates are supposed to go forward-forward-forward, and package scriptlets may even migrate some things from old to new, but not revert that during a downgrade). > I was struck by this with a recent update to google-chrome, it will not > run on my computer any more.

There used to be a Yum plugin to create a local repo for the downloaded packages. One can simulate it a bit based on keepcache=1 and copying the package cache contents to a local repo that would not be touched by the infamour "dnf/yum clean all". -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
