Bug ID: 1249314
Summary: yumex-dnf is not following the install only_limit
config parameter default 3
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: software-management-guide
Severity: medium
Assignee: docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Reporter: totalitout(a)gmail.com
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:39.0)
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0
Build Identifier:
Using yumex-dnf when installing an updated kernel, the oldest kernel is not
removed. All kernels remain installed, apparently without limit. The default
to keep only the 3 newest kernels is ignored. Running: dnf update removes
excess kernels, the limit of 3 is observed.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open yumex-dnf, run update.
2.Reboot to load updated kernel.
3.Kernel list displays more than 3 installed kernels.
Actual Results:
More than 3 kernels remain installed. The install only_limit config parameter
default 3 is ignored.
Expected Results:
Oldest kernel should be removed. No more than 3 kernels should remain
installed.
No error message. Didn't have any indication of a problem except when
rebooting noticed the excess kernels listed. This needs to be fixed. It could
cause unaware users to run out of space in their /boot partition.
