Hi folks,
Yum 3.2.23 is available. Yet more bugfixes and a fair number of new
items:
- downgrade command - you can now run (in a limited sense) downgrades.
It's not guaranteed to depsolve properly but if you specify the pkgs
properly it should download and work. Useful for reverting a broken
upgrade pkg. But don't try reverting a whole distro update. Chances
are LOW that it will work for you.
- yumdb - this is a separate, simple-text "database" of information
about each package that you install/update. Specifically information
like what repo a package was installed from, why it was installed,
etc, etc. More things will be added here as we progress. Right now, if
you install a pkg you can see what repo it came from in yum info
pkgname output.
This is great. Now some metadata about package tracking. Downgrade is
very nice too. Now you can escape from a broken update situation.
Kudos.
Regards,
Gerry
