Yes, it doesn't make sense to support those, as libsatsolver doesn't use sqlite. > Also claims > some of the repos don't have repomd.xml file while they do > > http://fpaste.org/paste/20055 "download error 6" means that curl exited with exit code 6, which means "Couldn't resolve host" according to the man page. That's pretty strange, because downloading "repomd.xml" seems to have worked, but primary.xml.gz suddenly fails. rpmfusion-free: is the repo configured to use a mirrorlist instead of metalink? That's not supported yet. Should be easy to add, though. > $ sudo solv search quake3 > > returns nothing after reading some of the repos again for quite > sometime. Ping me in irc if you need to test specific commands more. I > am mether in freenode and usually in #fedora-devel Probably because it couldn't read the primary.xml file because of the "download error 6" problem. Thanks for testing!
