True, but F18 does not do that, because there is a bug somewhere.

Therefore, I can't see why my conclusion is wrong. > Installing that package is _not_ supposed to fix it as in "a package is not installed, install it to solve the issue". It is not the package's responsibility to fix the (mis)behaviour. It is just a workaround due to side-effects caused by what PackageKit-c-n-f does when it intercepts a "command not found" situation (and queries repos). You may like it that your system does not show the described symptoms anymore with the package installed, _but_ the actual bug (or undesired behaviour) is still alive somewhere outside PackageKit-c-n-f. The reason I asked about PackageKit-c-n-f is not because installing it should fix the problem. I thought that PackageKit-c-n-f might the culprit and that uninstalling it would solve the issue. However, this time it's the opposite. ;) -- Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow) - Linux 3.6.11-3.fc18.x86_64 loadavg: 0.14 0.29 0.16 -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
