Presto enabled by rawhide - x86 only now. other archs will follow

[RahulSundaram]

Hi,

Presto is enabled by default for i386 rawhide as of today.

# yum update

====

48/48
Size of all updates downloaded from Presto-enabled repositories: 5.1M
Size of updates that would have been downloaded if Presto wasn't enabled: 28M
This is a savings of 83 percent

This is pretty exciting, actually. If I remember correctly, one will have to install yum-presto manually, or is that done automatically?

I will have to try it on the Asus 1000HE tonight.


Anxiously waiting for x86_64......

(Yeah, I know, we're NEVER happy).

Hope this helps you guys with the 12 million people who are getting updates from you constantly. Nice to see you guys are doing good horde management.

Just wanted to thank everyone who worked on presto and checksums for making updating faster and safer.

Hi,

If you installed the alpha or beta, you willl have to install yum-presto manually. The general release will have it installed by default so everything should just work out of the box

As you pointed out later in

F11 won't have yum-presto installed by default, so it will be necessary to install it, but it should work automatically after that.
