Low on the TODO list, but there. did not expect much higher priority up2date --show-package-dialog will show an extra screen in the gui with a list of all available packages you can select from. Off by default since folks dont seem fond of the ui. that should be in rh9 or later, btw --show-package-dialog does nothing I am changing this report to better reflect existing situation. --show-package-dialog is there and does work but only if there is a package in the group needing updating. Otherwise, up2date terminates with "Your system is up to date" before the all-package display can be performed. OK, I see what the "problem" is. In gui.py around between lines 1551 and 1555, if the length of the package list (of updates) is zero, then slam-bang get out with sys.exit(0) I am currently neither that knowledgable of python nor of the design of this module to propose a fix. up2date is no longer being actively maintained in favor of pup and pirut. Since this is neither a security nor a critical bug, it almost surely will not get fixed in Fedora Legacy. |
