Description Orion Poplawski 2006-01-11 16:29:29 UTC

Description of problem:
Low priority, but yum gives a traceback if not repos are defined:

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
No Repositories Available to Set Up
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ?
    yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 97, in main
    result, resultmsgs = do()
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 464, in doCommands
    return self.installPkgs()
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 827, in installPkgs
    self.doRepoSetup()
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 70, in doRepoSetup
    yum.YumBase.doRepoSetup(self, thisrepo=thisrepo)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 257, in doRepoSetup
    self.repos.callback.progressbar(num, len(repos), repo.id)
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'repo' referenced before assignment

which makes you think that there is a problem with yum, not with your setup.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-2.5.1-1

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2006-03-16 17:27:52 UTC

Works in yum-2.4.1-1.fc4 and yum-2.6.0-1:

# yum -y upgrade
Setting up Upgrade Process
Setting up repositories
No Repositories Available to Set Up
Reading repository metadata in from local files
No Packages marked for Update/Obsoletion

Though you might make "No Repositories Available to Set Up" "flashing" and the
last message to emphasize that this is a *bad thing*.
