Description Daniel Berrangé 2013-08-15 12:28:09 UTC
Description of problem:
When I ran 'dnf update' today, it downloaded all packages and then exited with the following error messages:

Error Downloading Packages:
  libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-1:4.1.0.4-6.fc19.noarch: Package does not match intended download. Suggestion: run yum --enablerepo=updates clean metadata
  python3-3.3.2-5.fc19.x86_64: Package does not match intended download. Suggestion: run yum --enablerepo=updates clean metadata
  libreoffice-pyuno-1:4.1.0.4-6.fc19.x86_64: Package does not match intended download. Suggestion: run yum --enablerepo=updates clean metadata
  ....cut more of the same...


Presumably this ought to be telling me to run 'dnf', not 'yum' to fix the problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dnf-0.3.10-1.giteb9dddb.fc19.noarch

How reproducible:
Unknown - not sure how I even got into this problem scenario with metadata brokenness :-)

Hi, thanks for reporting this, trivially fixed by e65e5ce. The metadata error itself is what's bothering me here, I've added a logline in 27fe410 so we can tell more if you see it again.
