Same for asking if you're sure (unless the -y option is used). Any barrier that has to be passed every time you use something, will be automatically passed without thinking, by someone in a hurry. (And of course the people in a hurry will use -y, so you don't even have that.) It goes without saying that time is limited, so you can't just casually blame the user for not taking extra time to work around the software's lack of protection against dangerous behavior. Since there are only a few devs and many users, it's expected that devs should spend some time including protection, to save a much larger amount on the user side. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
