Ah, so package-rollback is shipped as the "halfway-effective crutch, but it's so easy to implement we might as well offer it anyway" solution. Or, the excellent implementation of an incomplete solution. [No offense to the infrastructure design of yum, just stating the obvious here.] On the side, I store all of my user data and documents separate from my own actual home partition, and with every install I just wipe the home, and then re-link my documents and data to it. This scheme works decently (application-specific schemas and configs that are subject to irreversible change are discarded and recreated). But it's a pain to compensate for an inconvenient reality (that I must continually reinstall my distribution as a Fedora user, and I'm tired of having to migrate user data, where even residual /home directories leave rot). -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
