Hi, Steven, it appears that's what happened - an upgrade happened w/o me quite being aware, prob Apr 15. A little odd, I was expecting to see some sl7_1 packages in there but they are all either el7_1 or sl7. But, maybe I didn't have any SL packages that had 7.1 versions.
For example: Apr 11 18:37:15 Updated: firefox-31.6.0-2.el7_1.x86_64 Apr 15 22:26:07 Updated: systemd.x86_64 208-20.el7_1.2 I don't see any sl7_1 references. Just this sort of thing: Apr 15 22:26:23 Updated: libreport-filesystem.x86_64 2.1.11-21.sl7 Apr 15 22:26:23 Updated: libreport-python.x86_64 2.1.11-21.sl7 Thanks for your time, Ria On Sun, May 10, 2015 at 2:43 PM, Steven C Timm <[email protected]> wrote: > Look at your /var/log/yum.log.
