Description Michal Schmidt 2013-10-07 06:35:02 UTC

Description of problem:
I am running into "Too many open files" error when trying to update F19 systems to F20 using dnf. I have previously reported bug 1012290, but the bug I am seeing now is different. This time the error appears even before any package gets downloaded.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dnf-0.4.2-1.gitc1716d7.fc20.noarch
librepo-1.2.0-2.fc20.x86_64
hawkey-0.4.2-1.git4c51f65.fc20.x86_64
rpm-4.11.1-7.fc20.x86_64

How reproducible:
always on all F19 systems I tried.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf --releasever=20 --nogpg update fedora-release
2. dnf update rpm dnf librepo
3. dnf distro-sync

Actual results:
...
