first thing. i agree that the Linux Filesystem needs to be cleaned up.
have i said something against this?
no, i speak about the HOW!
but here's my point. lets say your downloading a upgrade and the
upgrade gets
to 87% and your power goes out for some time. what are you gonna do then?
reboot and start again - yes i had this case in the past
"yum-complete-transaction" and "package-cleanup" is your friend
a small UPS does not cost too much an prevents from such cases
but to be honesty - have a power outage while dist-upgrade
is like win in the lottery
you'll come to the mailing list and say my yum upgrade doesnt
work.
WTF - who will do this in the case of a power outage
and what the hell does a upgrade with DVD if your power goes down?
there is no difference to a yum upgrade - you have a undefined state
so please stop with such senseless arguments!
