Get in touch with App Dev team and figure it out an issue creating library' and packages then do the rollback with help of yum history command. ...

However, procrastination is a massive waste of time as it turns out. A survey in 2015 found that on average, a person loses over 55 days ...

If you'd like to assign a static letter to a drive that's the same every time you plug it in, read on. Windows assigns drive letters to whatever type of drive is available.
