Hi Seth et al, Along the same lines - not urgent at all though - but when I place a package in the repository with improper permissions (ie, 0600) such that the webserver can't read it, yum-arch works - but a 'yum install' on the client machine barfs and dies - I was thinking that if there was a way for yum to pass over the package if possible & report the problem, that would be sweet. As an aside, we're about to roll out RedHat 7.3 here using Yum on over 100 Machines! Yum kicks butt - Thanks so much Seth. > > Or at least a better error recovery mechanism, so it fails with some > message like: > > You may have a borked header -- try running "yum clean headers". > > instead of the indecipherable python messages.
