I'm prone to agree with that - the easy thing I could do is have yum update dtrt - just update. I don't think added a refresh does anything but confuse what update does :) so I'd be prone to change the comparison list for update right now yum update pkg* compares the pkgs to the list of available pkgs. I could have it compare the packages to just the list of update-able pkgs. so then yum update would never install something unless it was a dependency requirement. That would break the similarity to rpm's commands - but it might be more logical. -sv --=-Z2b9WQXMD8yAFbYuBhDv Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQA9Zp6b1Aj3x2mIbMcRAiHSAJ42fs+n1knxSs+WJSSazCKh0obJDQCgjFeA JnBOs2mMREsTJlRHjpFFEb8= =JVYX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-Z2b9WQXMD8yAFbYuBhDv--
