Traditionally no, I have never understood the functionality involved with those when creating an rpmsave or rpmnew, when those files are created relative to config files that I have never updated. Apart from that, if I have never updated the config file or never even looked at the config file, how am I supposed to know which version should be kept?On Mon, 2024-11-11 at 14:04 -0800, Samuel Sieb wrote:On 11/11/24 1:59 PM, Stephen Morris wrote:Am I doing something wrong then when I did not have to do any cleanup for the system to be in this state? As a side issue, I might be treading on thin ice here, I have never done any of the post-install processes on any version of Fedora. Until I saw references to them in this list when I was on F39, I didn't know they existed to even go looking for them. I did one try dnf autoremove and that wanted to remove half my system, so I abandoned that process, and issuing it now wants to remove 299 packages, some of which look to be old from their names, but how do I know whether they are actually redundant or whether I am using something from them. For example, it wants to remove package f36-backgrounds- gnome, how do I know whether I am using a background from that package hence should not be removed?I have never done any of those post-install processes.Not even 'rpmconf' to merge .rpmnew files?
