I have already found that out, the problem is that my.processTransaction()
silently refuses to install.
#!/usr/bin/python
import yum, os, sys
# setup base objects
my = yum.YumBase()
# someplace you can write to as your user
my.conf.basecachedir = '/tmp/whereever'
if not os.path.exists(my.conf.basecachedir):
os.makedirs(my.conf.basecachedir)
my.conf.cache = 0
my.repos.setCacheDir(my.conf.basecachedir)
class cb(object):
def event(self, state, *data):
try:
print state,yum.callbacks.PT_MESSAGES[state],data
except:
print state,data
my.install(name='xpdf')
my.install(name='xwnc')
my.resolveDeps()
for m in my.tsInfo.getMembers():
print m.name
my.processTransaction(callback=cb())
This is the output when it s run as a user:
xpdf
xwnc
10 Downloading Packages ()

And this is what I get as root:

xwnc
