Description of problem: The output from command "yum list available" is different when it is passed to pipe or redirected to a file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL5/6 yum-3.2.29-17 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a custom channel to Satellite custom_chann_sync_repo_thu24nov2011_10_16_39_28628 2. Register the server to Satellite with base channel custom_chann_sync_repo_thu24nov2011_10_16_39_28628 3.yum clean all 4.yum list available Actual results: The following text is displayed in one line test-regular-Test_RPM_0.x86_64 0.1-1 custom_chann_sync_repo_thu24nov2011_10_16_39_28628 If you pass the output to pipe #yum list available | grep custom_chann_sync_repo_thu24nov2011_10_16_39_28628 0.1-1 custom_chann_sync_repo_thu24nov2011_10_16_39_28628 if you redirected to a file: # yum list available > temp.txt The result are broken in more lines. Expected results: The number of lines is alway the same, regardless if the output is displayed to the console or redirected. The current behavior makes to processing of the output very complicated.
