Hrm - that works, obviously. Follow up question - what config file would g-s follow? Does it use yum.conf? I had the install only limit set to 5 in dnf.conf, not in yum.conf, and g-s removed 3 of my older kernels. > > > Given that updates using software cannot undone, should we maybe > limit > > gnome-software only to packages in the updates repository that have > > already been tested - to minimise breakage and therefore the > requirement > > to debug?

I did manage to deal with it - I distro synced to stable and will now update packages one by one to see what's breaking. :D I just thought *forbidding* updates-testing from g-s would be an added layer of security - even if an unassuming user wants to enable it, he should either be told - "Nope matey! If you wanna test stuff, use yum/dnf!" or at least a warning that says "Woah! Are you sure? This stuff isn't tested - it might break and you'll need to be able to debug it!". You know, something on these lines? -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur (FranciscoD) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Join Fedora!
