Hi folks,
New daily release available for yum 2.0.X - some nice things people
have moaned and groaned about :)
- progress bar on downloads - I went ahead and implemented the ones
michael had written LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG ago - there is part of the
output controlling that is a touch hacky - but it works (essentially if
your debuglevel is below 2 then you won't get the progress bars)
- yum provides now prepends */ to anything you pass to it provided that
the thing you pass to it does not include ?,* or /
- yum init clean up patch
- made logrotate not rotate the logs unless yum.log is > 30KB
- retries is set, by default now, to 6 instead of 3
(you can override in [main] with retries=somenumber
let me know if this breaks - especially the progress meter.
