From alikins@redhat.com Wed Nov 18 15:03:35 2015 From: Adrian Likins To: test@lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: new up2date for testing Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2003 02:01:48 -0400 Message-ID: <20030816020148.H24307@redhat.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============7834531005899070252==" --===============7834531005899070252== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I'll be putting new up2dates up at: http://people.redhat.com/~alikins/up2date/severn/ As often as I can. These are for testing purposes only and unofficial.=20 add: yum up2date-test-repo-severn-i386 http://people.redhat.com/alikins/up2date/se= vern/RPMS/ to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date to get to these with up2date. (note some versions of up2date out there might try to automatically update to these versions if you add that, if you dont want that, you can either set updateUp2date=3D0 in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date) or just grab the new packages which only auto update up2date if it's from an rhn channel). And for added fun, you can try testing rollbacks. They work perfectly. A shining example of modern software engineering in its finest form. Unbreakable. Fair and Balanaced. A=20 testament to perfection of form and function. Flawless in it's beauty, and overwhelming in its precision. A flawless beauty unbreakable purity cherry blossoms fall To enable, check "Enable Rollbacks" on the=20 Retreivel/installation screen of the gui in `up2date --config` or set "enabledRollbacks" to 1 if text config is more your style.=20 And if thats not enough excitement, try uncommenting the one line in /etc/rpm/macros.up2date This enables "all erase" transactions. Aka, rollbacks on package installs, not just package upgrades, for yall rollback newbies.=20 This will create rollback rpms on every up2date package install/upgrade (remove too, for that matter). You can then rollback the last rollback with: up2date --undo To reinstall the previous version of that package (including any modified config files).=20 If anything breaks... yeah, right, like this could possibly break. I already said it was perfect. Anyway, if anything=20 breaks, my good friend bugzilla wants to here about it.=20 Since you won't be needing it, I'll go ahead and provide a pointer url to the right place to file a bug. But you want need that. Adrian=20 --===============7834531005899070252==--
