Bug 508597

KPackageKit is working just fine in this regards for me on multiple systems.  There have also been no other reports in this regards.

Please do a rpm -q PackageKit and post the installed version

Steven

$ rpm -q PackageKit
PackageKit-0.4.8-1.fc11.x86_64

I guess there's some transient server-side problem with the mirror list.

I don't think so, for two reasons:
1. yum update works fine
2. this has been happening for 3-4 days now

same problem here,

Fedora 11

PackageKit-0.4.8-1.fc11.x86_64

produces every 5 minutes "no more mirrors are available".

yum works fine.

Paul, Amit are you both using kpackagekit or packagekit-gnome?

kpackagekit, as originally reported. I've disabled it via systemsettings because of this bug.

kpackagekit

Please do

yum clean all

and then retry running kpackagekit.  I am still unable to reproduce this on my systems.

Same problem here.
"yum clean all" makes no difference.

Richard, in your opinion is this a kpackagekit or packagekit issue.

Well, both. PackageKit is failing to get the update lists, but kpackagekit _really_ shouldn't be doing it every 5 minutes...

It would be interesting to see the output of:

sudo NETWORK=TRUE /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates none

.. on the failing computer.

Same here, using:
PackageKit-0.4.8-2.fc11.x86_64
kpackagekit-0.4.1.1-2.fc11.x86_64

It's not a continuous problem, mostly it works just fine and updates happily, but every week or so it comes up with this problem. Yum from commandline has no difficulty. The problem then goes away after a few days without obvious intervention, but comes back a while later. It's possible that there is occasionally a connection problem (this is a laptop with wireless), and I wouldn't mind if it gives a message and then keeps still until the next update cycle. But it shouldn't come up every five minutes then.

yum clean all doesn't help.

The output requested is:

sudo NETWORK=TRUE /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates

Hope this helps
Stephan

I just would like to confirm that i am sufferng from same issue here. I`ve run "yum clean all" with no results. When running

sudo NETWORK=TRUE /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates
I`ve received same error as Stephan.

PackageKit-0.4.9-1.fc11.x86_64
kpackagekit-0.4.2-0.fc11.x86_64

The problem remains intact. here's the output requested with

PackageKit-0.4.9-1.fc11.x86_64

Any comments Richard before I upstream this to dantti?

Sorry, you need to include the "none" part of the output, so the last part of the path should look like:

...ers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates none

It's only useful if this is done when kpackagekit is failing.

Same problem here:
PackageKit-0.4.9-1.fc11.i586
kpackagekit-0.4.2-0.fc11.i586

I am once again getting these 'No more mirrors are available' messages from kpackagekit every few minutes today ('failure: repodata/filelists.xml.gz from adobe-linux-i386: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.')

After getting two of these notification, I started 'yum update' which updated the package list just fine, before downloading and installing some updates. No problems there. But when yum had finished, the error notifications started to appear again.

I then tried the following:
~# LANG= NETWORK=TRUE /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates none
No plugin match for: rpm-warm-cache
No plugin match for: remove-with-leaves
allow-cancel    false

Excluding Packages in global exclude list
Finished
finished

The program sleeps for some time (minutes) after printing the final 'finished', then, directly after it has finished, kpackagekit shows a new error notification.

I tried disabling the Adobe repository and doing 'yum clean all', but that just changed the error message to: 'failure: repodata/5f68a595fda47c5fc69298a9bc738f192a9787d761ed02b78a5b0e1999fe1b09-filelists.sqlite.bz2 from rpmfusion-free: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.'

Killing the running packagekitd or kpackagekitsmarticon process did not change anything.

Here is output of "NETWORK=TRUE /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates none"

kpackagekit-0.4.2-0.fc11.x86_64
PackageKit-0.4.9-1.fc11.x86_64

I do not remember seeing this on my F13 boxes.

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Hi! I'm using Fedora 20 and I have this issue.

I now why I was expecting it. When I running yum distro-sync, I found a package that needs to update (it's strange why kpackagekit no resolves it).
