Description of problem:
yum is not able to correctly print package names containing certain characters during updates:

gcc-c%2B%2B-4.0.1-4.fc4.i 100% |=========================|  22 kB    00:00
---> Package gcc-c++.i386 0:4.0.1-4.fc4 set to be updated
---> Downloading header for apr-devel to pack into transaction set.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-2.3.2-7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install an old verstion of gcc-g++
2. yum update


Actual Results:  yum update
...
gcc-c%2B%2B-4.0.1-4.fc4.i 100% |=========================|  22 kB    00:00
---> Package gcc-c++.i386 0:4.0.1-4.fc4 set to be updated
---> Downloading header for apr-devel to pack into transaction set.
...

Note the %2B's in the log above


Expected Results:  Correctly formated message

Additional info:

Comment 1 Seth Vidal 2005-07-28 05:33:47 UTC

it's converting the string before requesting it from the webserver.

hence the printed name.

does this affect functionality at all?

AFAICT, this is a minor, cosmetical UI thing. It's "just ugly" and "a bit
confusing", that's all.

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2005-09-21 19:29:52 UTC

Does this happen with 2.4.0?

No, AFAIS, it doesn't seem to happen anymore with 2.4.0.

Comment 5 Jon Burgess 2005-09-23 22:58:05 UTC

It happens for me with 2.4.0, but doesn't appear to cause me any issues.

[root@shark ~]# rpm -q yum
yum-2.4.0-4

[root@shark ~]# yum --enablerepo=development update gcc-c++

Comment 6 Jeremy Katz 2006-04-19 20:03:31 UTC

Should be better with newer python-urlgrabber
