You can disable the automatic checking, put the launcher for gpk-update-viewer on a panel, and click that at your convenience; I do, more or less daily. Then, when a new release has been out for a week or so, I use preupgrade -- at *my* convenience, just like the updates. It wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that gpk-update-viewer also has an upgrade function; being comfortable with my compromise, I haven't bothered to look. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
