Today I tried to use PackageKit and it says starting.... but does nothing. is there a problem with PackageKit today? I've had more problems with Fedora 11 this week than ever.
As much as I like using Fedora. its been unreliable. Last person that I gave a copy of fedora to had trouble with different hardware and then I gave him a copy of Ubuntu 9.04 and he's happy with it. Too bad, it's hard to recommend Fedora when it has so many issues. I know many here will use it no matter what, but it does not help the promotion of Linux to the general public. For the people I deal with, Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Mint have been a more reliable choice. So instead of telling me that I don't learn enough about Fedora to use it, maybe the Fedora community could build a more reliable distro so more people could use it and I could recommend it to others!
