My system was upgraded from F31 to F32 and does have earlyoom installed
and running. I have never installed it myself and indeed wasn't even
aware of it before reading this thread. This is Fedora Workstation,
though I actually use KDE.
OK, then maybe it is added to Workstation on the upgrade. I suppose you can verify that
by looking at the dnf history for the upgrade.
I've not done an upgrade of a Workstation edition as of yet.
Either way, one can look at the journal to see if either the oom_reaper or earlyoom has
terminated
a process.
