Is this possibly a duplicate of 99396 triage->duplicate #99396
I've tried using the method described in Comment #3 in Bug 99396, but it still doesn't work. --- File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/repoBackends/yumRepo.py", line 104, in getHeader rpmSourceUtils.saveHeader(hdr) File "rpmSourceUtils.py", line 24, in saveHeader TypeError: unsubscriptable object --- Same error as first reported. However, when used to update installed components up2date works; I've just done an update on net-snmp and it finished without a hitch. I have also tried installing other packages eg w3m using up2date, but it would die with the same error.
I'm not sure this is a dup, since the earlier report deals with up2date versions without yum repository ability. That being said, I can't reproduce this issue by running up2date gpa on my fc1 install. It worksforme. Can you try to clear out your /var/spool/up2date directory?
Created attachment 97302 [details] sources file I used to install gpa using up2date This is attached as a reference, to confirm the problem is not a misconfigured sources file. This sources file was the one i was using with i installed gpa using 'up2date gpa'
Worksforme using sources mentioned in Comment #4. I installed gpa using 'up2date gpa'.
I'm closing this report as worksforme. Since comment #5 confirms comment #4 source list is working, Please, before ropening this bug, make sure you are using a known working sources list. This could very well be a syntax error in the original reporters config file. It would also be nice if the original reporter would attach the non functional source file for review.
