More dnf annoyance
by Heinz Diehl
Hi,
F22, in short: first running "dnf --refresh upgrade" shows some new
packets. Then "dnf clean all" followed by "dnf --refresh upgrade"
shows the same packets to be updated, and *some more*.
Dnf hasn't been working properly since F22, while I had not a single
problem with yum ever. Still I have to use "dnf clean all" before
updating, just to be sure to get all available updates.
There are bug reports reporting the same behaviour, but no solution.
As far as I realise, there isn't a way to get yum back.
Any chance that Fedora gets a properly working packet manager in the
near future?

dnf update vs Software Udpates
by Javier Perez
This is weird.
Software Updates on the Control Panel says that there are 39 updates
available
But when I run dnf update it says "Nothing to do". What gives?

numlock?
by Tom Horsley
Can anyone explain why in fedora 22, my keyboard's numlock
light is lit up when I boot, but apparently numlock isn't
actually on? (At least I have to press the numlock key
twice to make the numlock light go off, so I'm assuming
it wasn't actually on).

Questions on Anaconda Hub and spokes model
by shankha
Hi,
I had few questions on anaconda hub and spokes model. Is it the
correct list to ask those questions.
Basically I was trying to stop the localization, software and system
categories to come up on display hub. What is the best way to do it?
Thanks

dnf --downloadonly equivalent?
by Tom Horsley
I used to run "yum --downloadonly update" in cron at night so I would
have the cache already built when I was ready to actually
do the install later.
I don't see anything like --downloadonly in dnf.
Am I missing something, or is there no way to do that?

How to make window frame thinner
by Martin Cigorraga
Hello,
Please let me know if I should address this question to another list.
I recently discovered Lollypop music player - a very neat one - and now I'm
intrigued if there's a way to make the top part of the window frame thinner
as shown in Lollypop's screenshots: https://gnumdk.github.io/lollypop/
Here is a screenshot of a fresh installed Lollypop on a Fedora 22 / GNOME
3.16.2 using default Adwaita theme: https://i.imgur.com/Ntw9RFP.png
As you see, it is considerably bigger - taking away a lot of my laptop's
screen real-state.
Could you please point me on how to set it in a smaller fashion to
replicate Lollypop's screenshots look and feel?
Many thanks,
-Martin

4.0.8-300.fc22, but does not with any 4.1 kernel.

fedora 22 mostly better
by Tom Horsley
Hey! Fedora 22 is the first fedora release ever where
all the services that use the network seem to start
correctly! I haven't had to put any delayed restart
commands in rc.local to get mail and NFS mounts
and such working :-).
On reboot, it still almost always hangs for several minutes
doing God knows what (since it kills the nvidia
driver early, all I have is black screen, so I can't
see what it might be doing).
I accidentally discovered that someone has at least
made it listen to Ctrl-Alt-Delete during shutdown
now. If I hold the keys down to make them repeat
really fast systemd will stop waiting and go
ahead and reboot.
Now if only I could figure out what it is waiting on
(I suspect the "user daemons" for other users that
are no longer logged in have something to do with it).
Is there any way to have it trace shutdown and leave
info I could examine the next time it is up?
What is with the tmpfs mounts it now makes for each
user daemon? There is already a tmpfs /run, why
does every user daemon need yet another mountpoint
under that?
