Hey,
i seem to be on a topic spree today..
anyway.. i rarely use pup because i want to see the download speeds
for the packages and want to abort them if needed + i want to see any
possible errors that occur.
Unix tools should keep quiet unless an error occurs.
If yum fails for some reason, you should know, either through an e-mail
or by some other means.
If you need to watch yum to make sure it works, you should consider
filing a bug to make it more noisy on errors.
now i just did a update and i noticed that pup isn`t refreshing
itself
to see if there are newer updates or if another program took care of
the updates..
pup won't notice a yum update. This needs to be bugzillaed.
i know that you can manually refresh pup but wouldn`t it be better to
auto refresh pup once every 5 minutes?
Security updates are released every 1440 minutes (daily),
Checking for updates every five minutes is overkill.
and a pup suggestion.. could it be possible to show the yum output
in
pup (with a expand arrow)?
pup is aimed at making security updates simple for non-technical people.
A lot of technical people seem to want to make pup into a graphical yum,
which means we will later need yet another program that aims to be aimed
at non-technical people.
this is (probably) my last topic today.
more bug hunting tomorrow.
