More maple leaves! These are from last month – they’ve all since fallen to the ground. I am way too lazy to rake them up, but when dad came to visit he raked them to the curb and the vacuum shredder truck took them away to become compost.
Orange maple leaves
More leaves! I think I waited too long for the Japanese maple leaves in the yard, but maybe I’ll take a couple of shots of them on the ground before raking them up.
Fungus tower
Oliver and I found this small fungus-covered stump in Rock Creek Park while off-roading in our sweet new big-wheel stroller.
When I upgrade Fedora using yum or PreUpgrade my installed groups don’t really get updated. The packages in those groups get updated and any dependencies get resolved, but packages that have been added to the group in the new version of Fedora don’t get installed. So, after updating Fedora I make sure my installed yum groups are really up to date by running “yum groupinstall
- got the list of installed groups using “yum grouplist”
- copy-pasted the installed ones into a text editor
- search-replaced to get the groups wrapped in quotes with spaces between
- pasted that into a “yum groupinstall” command, eventually adding “–skip-broken”
That installed more than 800 packages! There’s probably a shell script out there somewhere to do this automatically.
Obligatory maple leaf photo
Yay, a photo! There are a couple of trees with these extra-garish leaves on our usual walk through Rock Creek Park. Oliver isn’t very interested in stopping to look at them unless there are some hanging low enough to grab and eat.
