automatischer Aufruf
Damit wir nun nicht bei jedem Update diese Option „manuell“ mit anfügen müssen, machen wir eine kleine Änderung in der Konfigurationsdatei des Plugins. Wir setzen dazu die Option always auf true.
# vim /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/changelog.conf
- /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/changelog.conf
[main] enabled=1 # Set to 'pre' or 'post' to see changes before or after transaction when=pre # Set to true, to always get the output (removes the cmd line arg) # Django : 2014-07-11 # default: always=false always=true
Nun können wir unser System wie gewohnt einfach updaten und wir erhalten die Information(en) aus dem oder den Paketen angezeigt.
