How are end users supposed to differentiate easily packages that have not
been rebuild from packages that have not been updated due to E-V-R and
other issues after they perform an upgrade of Fedora?
rpm -qa --last
rpm -qa --qf "%{BUILDTIME}\n"
Wading through this information to figure out the details I wanted
doesn't seem to be as easy as something like
# rpm -qa | grep fc5
If we would make it easier that would be useful. Maybe some preinstalled
scripts?
also... 'don't have E-V-R issues'.
That's easier said that done looking at the long list of such problems
in the regular automated reports. There are the other things like
missing obsoletes that can be responsible for left over packages.
