Not on my system, which for months now has been using yum without stablemirror. Ctl-C sometimes would switch mirrors and sometimes would cause yum to exit, as others have been complaining. From looking at yum and the libraries it uses, the behavior seems to me to be accidental. >No, this wasn't changed. Some people LIKE the "switch mirror" >behaviour.

I like to choose between switching mirrors or quitting yum when I press Ctl-C. Stablemirror seems to do it reliably, using the YumRepository.setupGrab.grabfunc.opts.interrupt_callback hook. Yum's top-level KeyboardInterrupt handler never gets the exception -- it usually didn't anyway, as RPM had already siezed SIGINT. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
