I don't know the technical background, but I certainly see the 'user experience' side of the complaint. Running 'yum info foobar' as user on my system takes much longer than running it as root. The logical conclusion is root has access to some cache that my user doesn't. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
