And _THIS_ is exactly my point when I say "Blue cars are blue" and claiming you expect them to be orange. The simple metaphor I use is about being disappointed that something is not what you expects it to be. It is not the blue cars fault at all they are blue; that's how they were ordered and came from the factory. If you want an orange car, go order an orange car instead of insisting the blue one should be orange. So: Start using RHEL/SL as intended, and you will be happier. Or use something else which works as you need. Complaining and ranting won't result in any thing. Do you know why I prefer RHEL/SL 6 or 7 as my primary development environment? That's the platforms I'm targeting as the oldest supported releases. And that code will run on future major releases of RHEL/SL as well as the current Fedora releases. Had I used Fedora 26 for primary development, I'd be hitting all kinds of challenges when trying to make this run on RHEL 6 or 7. So: Adopt your workflow to the environment you want to work within to reach your goal. Don't try to adapt the environment to fit your workflow. And if you reject doing that, well ........
