Before I made the comment to Joachim I tried this again. The single
quotes,  What has failed for me in the past failed then. And, after
receiving this from you I tried it again one more time. It still fails.
For me.

So?  Now we are at the 'this is a feature' or 'this is a bug' stage.

  :-)
At this point I'd do a couple of things....

First, I would run xev and see what you get when you type the '    I get...

KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x5200001,
     root 0x25d, subw 0x0, time 160745506, (125,104), root:(1328,127),
     state 0x10, keycode 48 (keysym 0x27, apostrophe), same_screen YES,
     XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (27) "'"
     XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (27) "'"
     XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x5200001,
     root 0x25d, subw 0x0, time 160745690, (125,104), root:(1328,127),
     state 0x10, keycode 48 (keysym 0x27, apostrophe), same_screen YES,
     XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (27) "'"
     XFilterEvent returns: False


And then....

[egreshko@meimei azureus]$ echo "'" | od -bc
0000000 047 012
           '  \n
0000002

I didn't read where you say exactly what the "failure" is....


Hmm...

Using ""  "" marks (double quote) works for me.

Using ' '  marks (single quote marks) does not work for me.

Please  tell me how I can say that more clearly?

At no time did I say that this was the only way. I said that this is
what works for me. I tried to offer a simple solution to a problem.

Too often do I see 'experts' try to impress Newbies and completely
derive them away.


HOD Ed. Trying to help on lists and forums is becoming more than 'I
don't give a $hit anymore.


You did see my comment about the list monitor and the delay?

Hi David,

a third way you could try would be:

	sudo yum groupinstall Cinnamon\ Desktop

Important: The blank char after the backslash!

BTW: I'm connected to the internet on my F19 box :-)

Kind regards

Joachim Backes



Yum has its own globbing, so "yum groupinstall Cin*" gets the Cinnamon
group assuming Bash doesn't find a Cin* in the current directory.
