Hi,
I'm using Yum for few months and i'm quite satisfied by it.
When using it, I found its messages were to verbose and annoying, so i
change the debuglevel flag into yum.conf to 1.
This was quite well, but i was surprise when I see some messages like this :
[lelfe@syunikiss lelfe]$ sudo yum update
Is this ok [y/N]:
Errrr.... ? What's ok ?
Of course the question concerned the packages that will be
updated/installed/removed, but they were not displayed, due to the too
small debug level.
I think these informations are really important and should be always
displayed. So I made a small patch to correct this. It just change the
related log level inside clientStuff.py .
I think it may be interesting for yum to check these messages and their
log level. Each log level must provide more informations than the
previous one, but they must be ordered by importance level. Information
concerning what must be installed/removed,... are very useless and i
don't understand why they're only displayed from the log level 2.
Level 1 could be a good level which displays only the most important
informations (0 could be keep to a no-message levels or
only-error-messages level).
That's my small contributions and ideas to Yum.
Keep on doing good job :)
Aur?lien
