Did the repodata properly reference the packages under packages1/, etc? requested by Jams Antill Jeremy: I did not use the fc6 anaconda with such repositories since I reported this. Yesterday I installed Rawhide (the repodata created in Rawhide as well) correctly with the repository laid as described above. If I understand comment #3 correctly, this is no longer an issue. Feel free to reopen this bug if you are continuing to see this problem, though. |
Description of problem: I've created a yum repository and attempted to tell anaconda to use it during the package selection phase. I got an error like "Unable to fetch repodata/comps.xml, No more mirrors to try" (or something similar). My repository was layouted like this: repository packages1 *.rpm packages2 *.rpm repodata * As per tcpdump and webserver logs (the repository was accessible via http), it seemed that anaconda downloaded the comps.xml correctly. When I changed the layout to look like this, anaconda finally accepted the repository: repository *.rpm repodata * If this is a design issue, it would be at least nice to get a somewhat better error message.
