I upgraded Fedora 38 to Fedora 44 (assuming 44-38≅2 ;), and now I'm going through /etc/ and fixing config files for services that aren't working. And I'm unpleasantly surprised that the upgrade didn't create any versions of the config files included in the packages, which would normally be written as .rpmnew files.
For example, I'm currently editing the configuration of NUT (Network UPS Tool) - it has a lot of config files in /etc/ups/, I had most of them changed in Fedora 38, after the upgrade to 44 they remained unchanged - but there is not a single .rpmnew/.rpmold file. Which is annoying, because this piece of SW has apparently been evolving quite a bit lately - e.g. the default configuration file, which was 5 kB in F38, is now 12 kB, etc. So if I wanted to edit the configuration on new versions of the files, I would have to download them additionally - which is extra work. Is this behavior of the package upgrade normal and logical? -- Thanks, Franta Hanzlik -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
