Description G.Wolfe Woodbury 2005-09-25 03:13:46 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050909 Fedora/1.0.6-1.2.fc4 Firefox/1.0.6

Description of problem:
The "Output" pane from yum processing is buffered (apparently) and doesn't show the tail of the output until the buffer fills or EOF is reached.

The Output should be unbuffered so as to see all the command output as it happens.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kyum-0.7.5-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.run kyum
2.
3.
  

Actual Results:  Output pane display appears in a buffered fashion

Expected Results:  should show output as it happens

The problem may couseed from the QProcess class, which may conain a buffering
mechanism. 

It seems that the output from yum which doesn't ends with a LF, will coused the
reported problem.
