"But how can I really be sure that ALL the data in that dir is disposable, especially if the user has disabled the repo in question in their config. I err on the side of protecting data. If yum is not told to remove it, then it won't remove it." So this is not-disposable data needing protection. I translate this into data that must be preserved. If it's not preserved it's not really protected, right ? -- Nicolas Mailhot -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
