It knows it doesn't have a terminal, and it doesn't print as much in terms of progress report as it does when it's run in a terminal. But it still prints messages once it installs each package, and I redirect that to a file on the server. Still, if the server fails, yum stops installing packages, and then starts removing packages that it had scheduled to remove in the transaction, or something like that. And then, again, you seem to be proposing work-arounds for what I perceive as an actual problem. Do you really not think there is a problem, or are you just trying to be helpful to me? My interest is not in work arounds, it's in addressing the actual problem, if there's agreement that there is one, so that it doesn't bite people who didn't know about the need for work arounds in the first place. -- Alexandre Oliva http://www.lsd.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Free Software Evangelist oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} FSFLA Board Member ¡Sé Libre! => http://www.fsfla.org/ Red Hat Compiler Engineer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
