Description of problem: I selected the option to download the src rpms when I downloaded updates. This is using the new yum/rawhide interface for test3. Instead of the src package being downloaded, I get a 404 message ... page not found. I suspect the structure of the directory tree differs between rawhide and the "rhn stucture" up2date normally expects.
Steps to reproduce: 1) Use a yum repository with SRMS not directly under yum root. 2) up2date --get-source foo 3) file /var/spool/up2date/foo-0.1-1.noarch.rpm reveals ASCII file long lines, which is the 404 page This is as up2date isn't using the path hints in header.src.info which is generated by yum-arch -s
In addition this seems to be due to to http://ftp.redhat.com using a 302 to direct to the error page and there not being a 404 in the HTTP header: To reproduce lynx --mime_header http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/foo/foo-0.1-1.src.rpm | head Other mirrors get an I/O Error as expected
works now
