Can I remove one of more packages from gui interface? The design spec cited in http://fedora.redhat.com/projects/config-tools/specs/redhat-config-packages looks real good but I am not sure what the status of this is. The might be some RFE or suggestions that I would offer if this was an active effort but why waste the time if it is a dead issue? I can do it all now manually via rpm but it is a bit time consuming. There is the additional complication of figuring out any dependencies that need to be installed. The same situation exists for removing packages ... oops can't remove that because something needs it. -- Gene -- Fedora-config-list mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-config-list
