Dear Testers:
I have run the test at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_desktop_updates several fimes
recently and would like to propose the following clarifiction addition
for others who might run this test.
How to Test step 5 reads "Wait for more updates to become available,
manually downgrade some packages so updates for them are again
available, or re-install "
I wish to add a box note like the "Tip for shortening the waiting time
to the updates notification" called "Tip for manually downgrading
packages".
"Tip for manually downgrading packages".
To find a package to downgrade the following steps can be taken:
1. Open a terminal and login as root or use sudo for the following commands.
2. Run command <yum history list> to deterime the instance number of the
last yum update, most likely it will be 2.
3. Run command <yum history info #instance-number#> #instance-number# is
the last instance from yum history.
4. Choose a package or packages from the info list, it may be necessary
to pipe the output to less or more to view.
5. Run command <yum downgrade /path_to_package/packagename.rpm and let
yum downgrade the package.
Sincerely,
Bob Lightfoot
