Description of problem: With recent version of yum, yum-cron e-mails total download as cron output e-mail where it was quiet previously. Example of e-mail: Subject: Cron <root@localhost> run-parts /etc/cron.daily /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 607 kB/s | 47 MB 01:18 This is with default settings of install updates and no ERROR_LEVEL or DEBUG_LEVEL set (so both are presumably defaulted to 0 - i.e. "yum - e 0 -d 0". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [psj@localhost ~]$ rpm -q yum-cron yum yum-cron-0.8.2-1.fc9.noarch yum-3.2.19-3.fc9.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable yum-cron with default install and quiet ERROR_LEVEL and DEBUG_LEVEL settings Actual results: Cron e-mail after updates are downloaded Expected results: No cron e-mail - i.e. the updates are quiet Additional info: I assume something has changed in recent yum to report these download totals even with "-e 0 -d 0" when they weren't reported before. I will investigate as get chance (and maybe move the bug to yum if appropriate).
This is fixed upstream and is in the Fedora 10/rawhide yum version. It'll get backported to Fedora 9 eventually (but feel free to install the latest version now, if you want).
i will close it, no need to keep it open
