Well, from my own experience, I do believe its a valid question. Look, sometimes an ego is going to get bruised, even if its mine because I didn't read all the caveats, or hold my chew in the correct side of my mouth, any one of a thousand things. But when one application (yum) consistently fubars the system, I don't care whose ego is bruised, it still needs to be fixed. If I'm running it wrong, then so be it, I can be directed. But first, I have to get somebodies attention so they can tell me where I screwed up if indeed I did. Put this way, I let yum update 290 some packages. To get that far, I had to mv Pubkeys and rebuild the rpm database to restore it. When it was done, the kernel it installed won't boot, and when booted to the older version, now X complains it doesn't have perms to run, and I'm root doing the startx. If those facts bruise an ego, then I'm sorry, but it doesn't change the FACTS. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
