Actual Results: The GUI becomes non-responsive, and the terminal gets the python traceback. Expected Results: GUI remains responsive and delivers up-to-date packages, without python tracebacks. Additional info: Subscribed to yum channel on rawhide.
I'm pretty sure this was due to the recent rawhide tree reorganization, to which we were alerted on fedora-test-list by Mike Harris (thank you, btw). This problem does not seem to occur currently under up2date-4.1.9-1.
This is resolved in recent up2date releases. This bug should probably be CLOSED RAWHIDE. -M
closing -- fixed in newer releases
