Description Kamil Páral 2015-05-20 08:20:28 UTC
Description of problem:
I saw this during today's yum update:

---> Package man-db.x86_64 0:2.6.7.1-13.fc21 will be updated
---> Package man-db.x86_64 0:2.6.7.1-14.fc21 will be an update

Failed to stop mandb.timer: Unit mandb.timer not loaded.
  Updating   : man-db-2.6.7.1-14.fc21.x86_64                                                                                                                                                               105/250 

It would be nice if it didn't print anything, unless there really is an error. Is there an error?

Comment 1 Jan Chaloupka 2015-05-20 09:05:59 UTC
It is not. For a while man-db used systemd timer instead of cron to update local cache. This change was reverted. Since some users updated man-db using timer I added code to stop and disable timer to remove it from their system as well.

This can be ignored.

Comment 2 Jan Chaloupka 2015-05-20 09:10:47 UTC
However, as this error message is going to show up with every update, it should be removed.
