One more thing, the phrase you used is often termed as sexist since it translates into what is good for men, is good for women too. You might want to use something better.

If you want credit, push changes upstream instead of keeping them for yourself. Lead rather than play in your little sandbox and demonstrate how you give credit to others for the work they have done which is 99% of your distribution

It was not preaching. I was merely saying that if it is goose, it is good for the gander.

Richard any chance you can spin up 0.4 PackageKit and bash built against F10 for us to test with? With the new python 2.6 change in rawhide I’m a little rawhide gun shy at the moment. This is the sort of feature I would want to beat on in a regular work environment to catch the corner cases and get them filed. I don’t want to have to drag all of python 2.6 into my day to day computer to do that sort of testing.

One thing, would it be possible to extend how this work so if packagekit doesn’t have an updated file cache, the suggestion attempt will just fail over instead of waiting for the network activity to complete to update the cache? I’m sort of concerned about bash sitting there waiting on network activity for multiple seconds. it would make more sense to me if PK’s cache update was fired off in the background bash came back to the prompt telling me what it did.

Yes, I’m using PackageKit 0.3.9, which I think is normal for most F10 users I look forward to getting 0.4.0.
