There aren't any rpmdb transactions to do the copy ... but AIUI you can still do them, right? There are also two parts to the filtering in yum: yum fs filter documentation ...this tells yum to start filtering all the documentation from all future transactions, but because of the way that this applies to removes as well as installs in rpm[1] yum also has: yum fs refilter yum fs refilter-cleanup ...the former alters all the yumdb.ts_install_langs and yumdb.tsflag_nodocs flags for the installed packages (without having to do an action reinstall), so that those packages are marked as having their docs/langs filtered (by yumdb, rpm -V will still complain). The later then deletes all the files that are on disk but should be filtered. [1] So if you do an upgrade the documentation for the new package is filtered from being installed, but the documentation from the old package is also filtered from being removed. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
