From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5) KHTML/3.5.0 (like Gecko) Description of problem: setting the onlyn to e.g 5 result in installation of 4 kernels. On installation of the 5th every already installed kernel but the running kernel in removed. I think this is due to the design of the break condition in the postresolve_hook function in installonlyn. The variable numleft will already be 0 before decrementing when on installation of the last kernel of the preselected set size. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.5.0.5 How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. set to_keep=4 (/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf) 2. install a kernel (no 1, in adition to the running kernel) 3. install a kernel (no 2) 4. install a kernel (no 3) Actual Results: Only 2 kernels are installed (the running + the newest) Expected Results: The preset to_keep number of kernels present: only the oldest dropped when the "desired" count would have been exceeded. Additional info: reproducibility: this happens on istallation of every (n-1)'th kernel (with to_keep=n) - if I got the arithmetic right.
