hello, I reproduced this traceback with old version of yum and I couldn't see it with new. But I am not sure if its this bug: 1. set up src repo like you described in comment 0, with source of aspell 2. placed 'pkgSack' in file: # grep -n4 "JDBG" /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py 504- self._pkgSack = self.repos.getPackageSack() 505- 506- self.excludePackages() 507- self._pkgSack.excludeArchs(archlist) 508: print "JDBG: len 1:", len(self.pkgSack) 509: print "JDBG: len 2:", len(self.pkgSack.returnPackages()) 510: print "JDBG: len 3:", len(self.pkgSack.returnPackages()) 511: print "JDBG: len 4:", len(self.pkgSack) 512- 513- #FIXME - this could be faster, too. 514- if repos == 'enabled': 515- repos = self.repos.listEnabled() [root@ibm-crichton-02 repo-1]# yum list available --exclude=aspell\*Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security This system is not registered with RHN.

Description of problem: As I see it you need to do: 1. Have a repo. with N packages. 2. Have M packages which aren't "native binary arch". This could be a source repo. but it'd have to not end in the "-source" suffix (or have at least 1 none source package). 3. Have global excludes which remove P packages from the repo. 4. Have (N - M) < P. Again the easiest thing to do here is have a source repo. (so N == M), and not let yum optimize the repo. setup as a source repo. 5. Run some code which requires a full package list. Running base.pkgSack.returnPackages() will do this. 6. Run some code which requires the length of the package sack. Or add another repo. which will cause yum to look at the length. This must happen after #5. ...the fix that works for me is the trivial: diff -ru yum-3.2.22-orig/yum/__init__.py yum-3.2.22/yum/__init__.py --- yum-3.2.22-orig/yum/__init__.py 2009-12-17 12:00:55.000000000 -0500 +++ yum-3.2.22/yum/__init__.py 2009-12-17 15:27:04.000000000 -0500 @@ -503,8 +503,8 @@ return self.repos.getPackageSack() # ha ha, see above self._pkgSack = self.repos.getPackageSack() - self.excludePackages() self._pkgSack.excludeArchs(archlist) + self.excludePackages() #FIXME - this could be faster, too. if repos == 'enabled': ...the big problem is that this is really hard to trigger. But aparently some people are hitting it. I don't know when it started, but it's in 5.4 and almost certaily wasn't in 5.0. The way I tested it was to configure a source repo (without the "-source" suffix) put in some global excludes and manually stick: print "JDBG: len 1:", len(self.pkgSack) print "JDBG: len 2:", len(self.pkgSack.returnPackages()) print "JDBG: len 3:", len(self.pkgSack.returnPackages()) print "JDBG: len 4:", len(self.pkgSack) ...into the code at a random point after everything would be setup.
