Hi there...
I was wondering anyone knows if/why the yum update notification applet
(the one displaying an icon on a panel when new updates are available)
has been removed in SL5. And if yes, is anyone is aware of have it
back on a brand new SL5 machine?
Not near an SL5 box at the moment, IIRC its in the yumex-applet package.
See what this returns...
# rpm -qa | sort -f > ~/rpmqa.log
# grep -i rhn-applet ~/rpmqa.log
# grep -i yum-applet ~/rpmqa.log
# grep -i yumex ~/rpmqa.log
# yum search yumex
No yumex-applet? Was it removed, renamed or merged with another package
in SL5?
