Re: yum doesn't work on FC14

[IstvÃn <leccine@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just to answer my own question:

- yum doesn't print out the error messages coming from any underlying python code even with debug=9

-strace is my friend

a missing file (ca-bundle.crt) in Â/etc/pki/tls/certs/ causing yum to fail with the error message "Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again"

:)

I am going to ask yum devs to bundle yum with strace as a long term solution

Hey,

you might have came across with this:

# yum update

Config time: 0.007

Yum Version: 3.2.28

COMMAND: yum update

Installroot: /

Setting up Package Sacks

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again

I can download any repomd.xml wo/ trouble using wget and filling up the variables in the URL by hand.

Unfortunately there is no strace installed yet so I can't just trace what is happening. I am going to install it from rpm and see what is going on. Any advice is welcome.
