selinux alert log triggered during update
I filled in several comments before, but when I attached a file to the bug report, they were lost. Briefly: I reran the package update yesterday and this time was able to view packages. But the category I tried, programming, took at least 5 minutes to load on the old machine I'm using for testing, and when I accidentally switched to another category by pressing page down, it took the same excessive time to redisplay the list. (It would be nice if page up and page down worked in the software list for browsing, but they don't seem to.) The good news is that the interface makes it easy enough to select multiple files for installation. Except that the performance is horrible on an older (1GHz) machine. Takes 20 sec. to a minute each time a package selection box is clicked. This is with a fast, direct internet connection. I left it running overnight and killed it 18 hours later while it was still trying to do something. It didn't succeed in installing anything, but apparently did trigger some selinux alerts. A log file is attached. Please test this on some older machines ~1GHz machines before releasing it. It's too slow to be used now, but needs to work on machines like that which do run fedora ok once it's installed. Thanks. *** Bug 450781 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** What's the output of rpm -qa | grep yum Thanks. Alas, I reformatted that machine and installed fedora 9 from the full CD set a day ago to see if I could make some progress. Would this output still be useful? (FWIW, packagekit is still slow to display category or package information, but it's the standard fedora 9 one now, not the rawhide version.) *** Bug 458534 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** $ rpm -qa | grep yum yum-utils-1.1.16-1.fc10.noarch yum-packagekit-0.3.1-3.fc10.i386 yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-8.fc9.i386 yum-3.2.19-3.fc10.noarch Fails for me also in i386 rawhide.

It's substantially quicker at most operations. Some are quicker by an order of magnitude.
