And the problem is KeepCache is true by default. I'm not sure why. If #KeepCache=false is uncommented from PackageKit.conf, the problem goes away (it doesn't clean up already applied RPMs, but applied RPMs are deleted after successful offline installation). The bug reports # pkcon refresh force does remove old RPMs. So maybe a future PackageKit update could run a script that executes that refresh as well as uncommenting KeepCache=false? -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
