Description Andrew Bartlett 2010-03-12 09:41:11 UTC

Description of problem:
When 'pki-ra' fails to install, the error message causes a python error

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora Alpha 13

How reproducible:
Only tried once...

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade a system with pki-ra installed (from Fedora 9 packages of original Dogtag 1.0.0-2.fc9 release) to Fedora 13 Alpha
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Python error

Expected results:
GUI error (better still, no error, but that's another bug)

Additional info:

On like 249 of yuminstall.py, the 'hdr' variable is dereferenced as an array.  It is a string. 

(Pdb) p hdr
'pki-ra'

Changing hdr['name'] to hdr should fix it.

Oh it's not quite that simple.  Only on some of the callback types is hdr a string.  Sometimes, it's an rpm header instead and the code should stay as-is.  I'll put in a check that'll work for both cases.

Andrew, are you able to confirm whether reported problem is resolved?  Updated installer images are available for testing at

Comment 4 Andrew Bartlett 2010-03-19 23:03:45 UTC

Sadly I cannot - I removed the offending package with --noscript and completed the upgrade.

anaconda-13.35-1.fc13 has been pushed to the Fedora 13 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
