OK, found it. Kind of shared error, fix is:
--- __init__.py~ 2007-12-05 23:27:40.000000000 +0100
+++ __init__.py 2008-04-24 11:40:59.000000000 +0200
@@ -589,7 +589,7 @@
self.plugins.run('pretrans')
errors = self.ts.run(cb.callback, '')
- if errors:
+ if errors != None:
raise Errors.YumBaseError, errors
if not self.conf.keepcache:
Reason for bug is non-obvious error return from rpmts_Run (rpmts-py.c) and
python regarding 'if []:' and 'if None:' as equivalent:
if (rc < 0) {
list = PyList_New(0);
return list;
} else if (!rc) {
Py_INCREF(Py_None);
return Py_None;
}
