Note: Things in general must be *very* careful when creating anything in the empty and fresh root directory. The filesystem.rpm sets up a couple of symlinks to directories, blindly creating real directories instead of symlinks here will break setups. *** Bug 982276 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 20 development cycle. Changing version to '20'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora20 *** Bug 1053983 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is there anything preventing patch from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=850861&action=diff (essentially the same as Comment #1) from being applied? IMO it's okay.. When /var/run is a symlink (the common case), this change is a no-op. User cachedir locking is not an issue too, as we use only basename(lockfile). James, do you know of a use case this might break? Patch isn't terrible as is (just change path to /run/yum.pid) ... it might be better to not call makedirs() in _lock, and just give up (don't create lock file, or create it in cachedir, and carry on). yum-3.4.3-135.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/yum-3.4.3-135.fc20 yum-3.4.3-135.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/yum-3.4.3-135.fc19 Package yum-3.4.3-135.fc20: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 20 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.

Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2014-2482/yum-3.4.3-135.fc20 then log in and leave karma (feedback). yum-3.4.3-137.fc20 has been pushed to the Fedora 20 stable repository.
