Description collura 2012-03-11 21:14:29 UTC

Description of problem:

run 'add/remove software' gui or run yum from command line

select astronomy-menus-1.0-5.fc17.x86_64 and hit apply

  (or type 'yum install astronomy-bookmarks-1-8.fc17.x86_64')

and get 'checking depencies' and then stops and resets list like it finished

  ("# yum install astronomy-menus-1.0-5.fc17.x86_64
  Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
  Setting up Install Process
  No package astronomy-menus-1.0-5.fc17.x86_64 available.
  Error: Nothing to do
  ").

like its missing has an empty list entry

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


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to install by commandline or from gui
2. gui like resets after checking dependencies / commandline give doesnotexist
error
3.

Actual results:

  silent fail where package is not installed

Expected results:

  package installed

Additional info:

  'yum clean all' flush didnt seem to help

  also for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=802172

  (probably another bug and not an offshoot of missing package or out of date list but when select this package along with other working packages then none of the multiple packages install though each install ok individually)

sorry typo above 

the package was noarch not x86_64

but the 'addremovesoftware' gui still failed silently that time.

however the package installed this time for some reason.

not sure if random or related but some updates came through before install worked:
