Patch that doesn't make you click forward after retrieval and installation
I was thinking something along these lines. I have to create an option in
up2date-config, but something like this works for me. If this seems
reasonable, I can code the option.
I like the idea, I'll take a look at the patch. I don't think I'd even bother with a config option, I'll just make it the new default I woud also love to see this option added. Updating on OS X and Windoze is much more streamlined than it currently is with up2date. Too much clicking is a bad thing! -Sean :) Cool! What about having the first page be the channelsPage? The welcome page seems frivolous to me and there should be room to add a few words on the channelsPage. A "Yes to All" option when unknown GPGs pop up would kick arse *** Bug 124441 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I vote for this bug. up2date is much too noisy. Since the process of updating packages takes rather a long time this is very annoying. In synaptic you push "reload", "mark all upgrades", "apply" and that's it. I would like to see similar functionality in up2date. Note that FC1 and FC2 are no longer supported even by Fedora Legacy, and FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy only for security issues. Please retest this bug against a still supported version and retest. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4 and is a security issue, please reopen the bug and assign it to that version and Fedora Legacy. If it occurs on RHEL, please change to that product and the appropriate version. Note that up2date has been replaced by pirut/pup for FC5 and FC6, the only fully-supported versions of Fedora Core. Please test pirut for software updates and file bugs as appropriate. |
