Seth,
I know this is an obscure occurance, but it left me
searching for a bit to find out what it was complaining
about...
On our dept. systems, we only install samba-common and
samba-client rpms, not the samba rpm which contains the
server stuff. So, our yum repository only has the client
packages. BUT, if I happen to have the samba package installed
on a system, and then get a new version of samba (for all
packages) and try to update it, it crashes with the error :
Traceback (innermost last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 44, in ?
yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
File "yummain.py", line 202, in main
File "nevral.py", line 263, in resolvedeps
File "archwork.py", line 63, in bestarch
IndexError: list index out of range
because it only finds samba-common and samba-client in the yum
repository and needs samba in order to satify dependancies and
complete the install.
Just a place where a good error message would help.
