Description Mikuláš Patočka 2012-02-02 20:19:09 UTC
Created attachment 559125 [details]
a screenshow of an error message. It could be easily reproduced from the console by setting LANG to "cs_CZ.utf8" and running "yum upgrade"

Description of problem:
I was using RHEL 6.1 and a yum error message popped up.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 6.1, yum version 3.2.29

How reproducible:
yum crashes always if you have Czech locale and the system is not registered in RHN

Steps to Reproduce:
1. unregister the system from RHN
2. export LANG=cs_CZ.utf8
3. yum upgrade
  
Actual results:
# yum upgrade
Loaded plugins: product-id, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin, subscription-manager
Updating Red Hat repositories.

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0159' in position 7: ordinal not in range(128)


Expected results:
it should display error message meaning that the system is unregistered and not a stack dump
