Personally I think people would be happier if the downloadonly plugin
would be included in a base install and documentation/examples/help
showed it as the typical update method. That is, do the:
yum --downloadonly update
more or less unattended, repeating as necessary if it doesn't complete
and knowing it won't hurt anything, then babysit the real
yum update
which will happen quickly and may need a reboot and/or some application
testing afterwards.
+1
Thats the way. Simplify the things for the final user. (Newbie or not).
Maybe this so clear for people who are in the know, but most part of people not.
All my suggestions here, are for that reason.
I would like a simple option "Download and notification when updates are ready to install" Should I know that I have download another package? Should I know yum --downloadonly update? By this way no. Clear for the user.
Thanks.
