There's a couple of problems with doing this on every run: 1. if the next run is non interactive I'm not sure what is the more appropriate default 2. if the next run is 'yum remove something' does it really make sense to complete the last transaction (possibly downloading a bunch of stuff) first? Now, I would be fine with emitting a "there are unfinished transactions" message and a small sleep. But I don't think intervening with what the user is doing is going to necessarily be helpful. Though I'm not terribly bound to this idea. -sv -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
