The goal is here is to have a clean user experience: We found on Ubuntu that users were confused about continuing to get a "reboot required" notification for kernel package updates after installing Ksplice, since they were upgrading the in-memory kernel rebootlessly. We agree users should keep the Fedora kernel rpm up to date -- we just found users were confused being warned that they still needed to reboot after installing a new one. We're not totally thrilled about the mechanism (overwriting PackageKit), though, and we'd definitely be happy to consider cleaner alternatives there. If suppressing these notifications is a total non-starter, we can probably take them out, but we've found it greatly improves the user experience. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
