Description Andre Robatino 2011-08-23 05:38:41 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently, there's no way to tell f-e-k to not show a given update when run again, if no comment is posted. The best I can do is to use --installed-max-days=1 , but that only narrows it down to updates within the last day (using 0 shows no updates at all). Frequently, there is more than one push within a 24-hour period, in which case I have to manually skip updates by looking at the end of /var/log/yum.log to see whether the update was in the latest batch.

Currently the only workaround is to post a zero-karma comment just for this purpose, which is frowned upon - see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Proven_tester#Unfamiliar_packages .

One possible way to do this would be to change --installed-max-days and --installed-min-days to allow hours and minutes, then set the maximum time to something that would exclude the previous batch. But I think it would also be nice to be able to just tell f-e-k "never show this update again" somehow.

Comment 7 Andre Robatino 2011-08-23 21:43:41 UTC
The 'i' option for ignoring updates seems to work fine, with the exception that if you exit f-e-k with Ctrl-D, it doesn't remember any ignore choices made during that run. Is that expected?

(In other words, if I run f-e-k, tell it to ignore several packages, Ctrl-D, then run it again, the packages are not ignored.)

Thank you, that was not expected but is fixed in the current development version. There only on CTRL-C the ignore list is not stored.

Comment 12 Andre Robatino 2011-08-25 00:24:13 UTC
Using the new build, I seem to be seeing some of the updates which I told it to ignore yesterday. Is it possible that it's not remembering old ignored updates properly after a new push?
