What should it default to act on This is interesting. In my mind I've been thinking of globs as broken because they pull in everything. Then I start using them when I remove something and it works as I expect! Woohoo! Next time I use it to install something and it's still "broken".... Now that we've had this discussion I realize this isn't broken but a design decision. But even though I now realize it is consistent, I still think it is unexpected. Here's why: yum install vim* installs vim-common.x86_64 vim-enhanced.x86_64 vim-minimal.x86_64 yum install xfsprogs* installs xfsprogs.x86_64 xfsprogs.i386 xfsprogs-devel.x86_64 xfsprogs-devel.i386 Why should xfsprogs install i386 packages when vim doesn't? -Toshio
