Comment 1 Seth Vidal 2007-12-07 03:22:18 UTC

What is in your rpmdb that is not unicode or not convertable to unicode?

Comment 2 Nicolas Mailhot 2007-12-08 10:25:59 UTC

(In reply to comment #1)
> What is in your rpmdb that is not unicode or not convertable to unicode?

How does one check this?

Comment 3 Seth Vidal 2008-03-12 14:57:41 UTC

Nevermind - I think this had more to do with the input. Can you check this issue
on yum 3.2.12 from rawhide? Or let me know how I can go about duplicating it?

thanks

Comment 4 Nicolas Mailhot 2008-04-19 13:01:14 UTC

I haven't seen it lately so something may have fixed it. Closing for now
