When verifying the package base/basesystem4.9-3 we get the following errors on the startup terminal, followed by a dead checkup reporting screen [root@cyclone local]# glint Glint Graphical Package Manager -- version 2.6.2 Copyright (C) 1998 - Red Hat Software This may be freely redistributed under the terms of the GNU Public License Exception in Tkinter callback Traceback (innermost last): File "/var/tmp/python-root/usr/lib/python1.5/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 752, in __call__ return apply(self.func, args) File "./area.py", line 46, in call self.command(self.arg) File "./area.py", line 352, in menuCall command(packages) File "./glintw.py", line 58, in verify DoVerify(packages) File "./verify.py", line 182, in DoVerify VerifyPackage(package, win) File "./verify.py", line 144, in VerifyPackage for file in package.getFileEntries(): File "./package.py", line 157, in getFileEntries for i in range(len(fileNames)): TypeError: len() of unsized object [root@cyclone local]# When verifying the package base/dev2.5.9-1, GLINT crashes and exits with no diagnostic messages.
