Comment 1 Tim Lauridsen 2006-06-19 13:17:04 UTC
Yumex uses a backgroud thread to download repository metadata, the error occours
somewwhere inside the Python threading code, i have no clue what is going wrong.
Do this happends every time or did it happen just once.

Comment 2 Sudarsan Sridhar 2006-06-22 13:58:54 UTC
This happens everytime

Comment 3 Tim Lauridsen 2006-08-24 10:39:38 UTC
This error occours when quiting yumex, while running in a thread.

The multiple downloading of primary.xml.gz can be caused by some defective yum
metadata.
Try running 'yum clean all' (as root)
before running yumex.
