Not sure we're going to be able to solve this one easily but tagging as YUMBUGDAY Well "yum info" displays everything, so I'm thinking NAB ... but maybe we can convert to a slightly more verbose format somewhat like "yum search" does. The canonical test case in Fedora is php-pear-Structures-DataGrid-DataSource-DataObject (69 characters, if you incl. the version) ... or just php-pear-Str* I'm going to leave this open, and I might fix it for "list" when the new verbose/logging APIs go into upstream (post Fed-9). Or I might just close it NaB, after more consideration. Hi James, I did not realize I could use "yum info" instead of "yum list", so I had to use a web browser to find out the correct package name. "yum info" is an improvement over that, but still, it's not convenient to use when you just need the name. Also, other users may have the same problem of not thinking about "info" when they _really_ want to "list". All in all, it would be nice to fix "list" and not just close the bug. Regards, Andrei Additionally, if you want a list w/o any sort of truncation look at repoquery in yum-utils. Very handy for getting rpm -q type output from yum repos. This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Moving to Fed-9, I did a fix and I'm not sure it'll go in for Fed-9 ... but it should be there for Fed-10. Anyway... |
