Description Christian Nolte 2006-10-30 08:37:04 UTC
Description of problem:

yum-updatesd is not installed when an update from fc5 to fc6 is done.
Furthermore puplet is not started by default when logging in to GNOME or KDE.

How reproducible:

I observed this on two systems which were updated accordingly.

I can confirm the first part of this at least.  I upgraded a server from FC5 to
FC6 and noticed that no nightly updates were happening.  I checked and
/etc/init.d/yum wasn't present.

After installing the yum-updatesd rpm I get an entry back in /etc/init.d and my
nightly updates are working again.

I suppose it's too late to do anything about this now, but users should at least
be made aware that they might not be getting their updates.

Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2006-10-30 18:47:05 UTC
New features are generally not installed on an upgrade.  And unfortunately,
requiring it would end up meaning breaking people who don't want it installed
(for various reasons)
