We are seeing this as well. It is creating a lot of warning noise and alerts from our automated patching system as it thinks all the pre-downloads are failing, even though they end up in the correct location and properly cached for use when patching. If I can provide any more information to help get this resolved, please let me know. Thanks! Is the problem only with the listed packages in comment#0 or with all packages? Could you also verify that downgrading yum to an older version fixes the problem? By any chance don't you have a host/vm/container in which the problem is reproducible so we can debug it there? All packages from any repositories that are on the spacewalk server. Downgrading to yum-3.4.3-161.0.1.el7.noarch is a workaround and is what we've currently done, enforcing via config management. I will check with management to see if I can give you ssh access to a test VM that's subscribed to our Spacewalk server, but it wouldn't be until after Thanksgiving. As a note, our site is using Oracle Linux 7, and we have opened a case with them as well, but the bug is not specific to Oracle Linux and affects RHEL the same. If you would prefer a straight RHEL setup to test on, I understand. Thanks, -stefan We should be able to give you access to a VM. Please e-mail me at my account address and we can coordinate. Thanks, -stefan PR: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/yum/pull/112 Thanks Stefan for providing the VM! Easy reproducer: 1) Add "async=0" to /etc/yum.repos.d/<my-repo>.repo 2) # yum install <package-from-my-repo> --downloadonly [...] Error downloading packages: <package-from-my-repo>: Downloaded package <package-from-my-repo>, from <my-repo>, but it was invalid. Note that this issue is only triggered when "async" is disabled, because of the verifyLocalPkg() check that looks at the now incorrect po.localpath value: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/yum/blob/3da1a101937f62b2e4836346d096d3c745bf34fd/yum/yumRepo.py#L1077 The patch by Lukash fixes this. Hi, I hate to press but when can we expect to see the fix released? Thanks, -stefan Hi Stefan, The fix is currently planned to be released in the next RHEL-7 minor release. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory, and where to find the updated files, follow the link below. If the solution does not work for you, open a new bug report. https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2020:1122 Thanks for wasting another half an hour of my life. Also... extra, and much more sincere thanks, for fixing it just quick enough that I don't have to log a bug report myself. |
