Hi,
Would it be possible to make [dnf update] output something immediately
after being run? And what would be the right course of action to get
this feature implemented? I know it’s probably a miniscule thing, but
it’s one of those small details you notice when shifting over from an
apt-based distro. When running [apt update] or [apt upgrade] it responds
instantly.
I usually run it like [sudo dnf update] and when you mistype your
password it gives you a wait period, but so does [dnf update]. So in a
brief moment you’re left hanging not knowing whether the password was
incorrect or if [dnf] is simply updating. I know changing [sudo] to not
give a wait period would be a lesser crime to some, so therefore I’m
wondering if we can change [dnf] instead.
You can always wrap it with a shell script which prints something, then
invokes the real dnf....
If I’m addressing the wrong list, please advise. Also I’m not very
good
at C languages so I can’t just provide a patch unfortunately.
