Description Raphael Groner 2011-01-16 17:56:20 UTC

Description of problem:
There's no automatic update to the package list if a repository gets disabled in the list by removing the check mark. The repository is enabled again after a restart of yumex.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yumex-3.0.1-1.fc14.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disable a repository
2. Switch to packages list
3. 
  
Actual results:
Still packages for the recently disabled repository visible. After a restart of yumex, repository is enabled again.

Expected results:
No packages in the list from disabled repositories. Disabled repository also after a restart of yumex.

Additional info:
Tested with xfce-4.8 test repository from cwickert.

Comment 1 Raphael Groner 2011-01-16 18:19:49 UTC

I did some additional testing and could reproduce also the other way around with (re-)enabling a repository. Does the user always need to click explicitly on "update" button on the bottom right to apply changes permanently? Usability seems to be a little bit weird.

Comment 2 Tim Lauridsen 2011-01-17 11:23:56 UTC

enable/disabling of repositories is only for the current session and need to press the "refresh" button to reload packages after you have changed the active repositories.

Check here to see how to permanently disable/enable repositories here.

(In reply to comment #2)
Nice, short and clear documentation. Good usability. Thank you.
I prefer using yumex instead of default PackageKit that I've removed.
