Your suggestion for users is to install "RPM Development > Tools" group? I don't believe the vast majority of people actually install old package versions *ever*, unless they get very explicit instructions to do so either because there was a big fail of some kind and we did our usual emergency drill, or they hit some kind of very specific bug and got very specific instructions to do so in Bugzilla or something. I should probably have said that too to make it more clear, but basically, in the rather unusual case that you actually do need to get an old package, the koji CLI does the job fine, I'd say. I think the idea that everyone needs to have a gigantic cache of every package version they've ever installed stored locally just on the off-chance they need to install an old one some time is...wrong. (Obviously the *right* way to do that general approach is some form of snapshotting...hi, ostree). -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
