Individual packages is better done with yum. pirut might benefit from some interface changes, but imho it also needs to be able to install updates to existing software at the same time it installs new software - so that after installing Fedora, you can just use pirut to pick your packages - and at the same yum transaction it will install available updates. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
