Another feature I don't want!
What do I change to prevent yum from deleting them?
I prefer to control what my computer does and such things really bother
me.
I updated the kernel and it left me only one earlier one, deleted the rest!
I searched through the yum and yumex files and it's not obvious to me where
this is set.
/etc/yumex.conf
Has a line "autocleanup = no" set to "no" in response to a menu item I
found but
I still don't find any saved rpm's. With FC4 those rpm's were a
resource I used
in other computers ...
Thanks.
