About:
I wrote yumtk after looking around for a GUI front-end for yum, and finding only others looking for the same thing (and a few projects that never released any files). This tool really should have been written in tkinter since yum itself is written in python, but unfortunately I don't know python yet so I wrote it in TCL/TK instead. This is my very first released GPLed software, so be kind. ;) Features: Status/Bugs: I have used this on a couple of my own machines (running Fedora Core 1 & 2) without problems... this does not mean it is bug free, I just squashed all of the ones I've found so far. That said, I have trapped very few errors, so if yum has any problem at all, yumtk will also... this includes severe lag/slowness if a repository is acting up (recently seen with freshrpms.net, for example). Plans: Depending on this tool's popularity, I may add the following features: Requirements: License: This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
