Hi,
I know this configuration is not supported but I'd
still like to report the following - YUM 2.2.1 gets
confused by the "2.3+" that SuSE 9.0's Python
reports:
---------------------- 8< ----------------------
$ python -V
Python 2.3+
$ yum --version
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ?
import yummain
File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ?
import yum
File "__init__.py", line 34, in ?
File "config.py", line 31, in ?
File "__init__.py", line 53, in ?
File "grabber.py", line 328, in ?
File "keepalive.py", line 113, in ?
ValueError: invalid literal for int(): 3+
---------------------- 8< ----------------------
The offending lines in question (urlgrabber/keepalive.py):
---------------------- 8< ----------------------
112 import sys
113 _python_version = map(int, sys.version.split()[0].split('.'))
114 if _python_version < [2, 4]: HANDLE_ERRORS = 1
115 else: HANDLE_ERRORS = 0
116
---------------------- 8< ----------------------
YUM 2.0.8 seems to work fine on SuSE 9.0 with basic
support for updating from RPM repositories. I haven't
tested kernel/glibc upgrades, etc. I *have* seen
messages like this one:
https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/yum/2005-March/006261.html
so I know what I could be getting into.
Thanks,
Ranjit.
