Greetings- We are encountering errors when attempting to use yum-arch's -c option, described in the manual page as "check pkgs with gpg and md5 checksums - cannot be used with -n." The box we are having an issue with is running Red Hat Linux 9, RPM 4.2, and yum 2.0.2 installed via the 2.0.2-1 RPM. See below for some additional system info. As root, in a test directory, i can bring in the full Red Hat Linux 9 errata from a local mirror. I can run "yum-arch ." with no problems: > # yum-arch . > Digesting rpms 100 % complete: httpd-2.0.40-21.5.src.rpm > Total: 224 > Used: 164 > Src: 0 > > Writing header.info file I can also run "yum-arch -s ." and receive no errors: > # yum-arch -s . > Digesting rpms 100 % complete: httpd-2.0.40-21.5.src.rpm > Total: 224 > Used: 224 > Src: 60 > > Writing header.info file Executing a "yum-arch -c" results in the following: > # yum-arch -c . > Digesting rpms 0 % complete: kernel-smp-2.4.20-18.9.athlon.rpm > Checking sig on kernel-smp-2.4.20-18.9.athlon.rpm > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/bin/yum-arch", line 23, in ? > pullheaders.main() > File "pullheaders.py", line 146, in main > File "pullheaders.py", line 257, in genhdrs > File "rpmUtils.py", line 55, in checkSig > AttributeError: sigChecking The error does not seem to be related to any particular rpm package. I can remove packages with no effect other than to change the package referenced in the "Digesting rpms 0 %" status report before the error. A little bit of system info: # rpm -q redhat-release rpm rpm-devel rpm-python yum gpg-pubkey-* redhat-release-9-3 rpm-4.2-0.69 rpm-devel-4.2-0.69 rpm-python-4.2-0.69 yum-2.0.2-1 gpg-pubkey-db42a60e-37ea5438 Running an rpm --checksig on the collection of RPMs behaves as i would expect, all signatures check out. Any suggestions? I seem to recall using yum-arch -c with success on earlier systems, 1.x versions of yum, probably. Is the -c argument to yum-arch broken, not yet implemented, or am a missing something that needs to be corrected on my end?
