From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: In the up2date-gnome GUI, please add the mirror name to the "Retrieving: <package_name>" panel. This will make it easier to understand/diagnose/report on mirror performance. Also, please make visible the hostname of the system being updated, to aid in keeping track when running up2date remotely via "ssh -Y". A good place might be the window manager title bar of all windows. And a minor nit: the abbreviation "55 kB/sec" should be spelled "55 KB/sec" with a capital 'K'. (All prefixes greater than 1 are capitalized, all prefixes less than 1 are lower case. 'm' means "milli-" [0.001], 'M' means "mega-" [1,000,000].) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): up2date-gnome-4.3.47-5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run up2date on a remote system while forwarding X11 to the local system using ssh ["ssh -Y <remote>" or "ssh -X <remote>", depending on which version of ssh.] 2. 3. Actual Results: Hostname is not displayed anywhere. Mirror name is displayed only when selecting channels, and not during "Retrieving: ...". Expected Results: Hostname is displayed on every panel; the window manager title seems like a good place. Mirror name is displayed for the duration of any transfer. Additional info:
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
Closing per lack of response to previous comment. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4 and is a security issue, please assign to Fedora Legacy and the appropriate version. The bug could also be filed against RHEL if it is relevant there. up2date has been replaced by pirut and pup in FC5 and FC6, the still fully supported versions of Fedora Core, so this bug will not be fixed unless it is a security issue.
