Description James Wilkinson 2007-07-24 12:14:59 UTC
Hi.

This is about the latest yum-3.2.2-1.fc7 in updates-testing (not rawhide), and
the configuration and documentation of the new integrated installonlyn.

In the changelog, it reports:
- set installonly_limit to '2'
Has this actually happened?

man yum reports
       installonly_limit
              Number  of  packages listed in installonlypkgs to keep installed
              at the same time. Setting to 0 disables this feature. Default is
              ’0’.
yet installonly_limit option isn't mentioned in any /etc/yum... file in the new
package.

Thanks!

A patch has been applied to yum in fedora that sets this value to '2' in the
source code. We did this so that people who had installonlyn on before didn't
find it suddenly disabled.

Could we have the man page fixed, then, please?

Updated installonlyn-enable.patch which fixes the yum.conf manpage

The attached patch is an updated version of installonlyn-enable.patch from the
devel branch.  It fixes the yum.conf manpage to reflect the change in the
installonly_limit default.
