From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040312 Description of problem: When I choose packages in Packages Management dialog and proceed to install them an error message shows up ("There was an error installing packages. Exiting."). The results are always the same regardless of chosen packages. In terminal I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-packages/GroupDetails.py", line 171, in rendere r_toggled self.component.selectPackage(package.nevra()) File "/usr/share/system-config-packages/GroupSet.py", line 794, in selectPacka ge pkg = self.packages[pkgnevra] KeyError: 'xemacs-0:21.4.15-3.i386' The file /mnt/cdrom/Fedora/RPMS/../Updates/joe-2.9.8-9.i386.rpm cannot be opened . This is due to a missing file, a bad package, or bad media. Press <return> to I wonder why it looks for a package in ../Updates/joe-2.9.8-9.i386.rpm (I didn't use up2date). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-packages-1.2.10-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run system-config-packages as root 2. Choose any package to install and click Update.. 3. Put appropriate CD in the drive. Actual Results: When installer starts an error dialog pops up and the installation is not finished. Expected Results: Package Manager should install new packages Additional info: I think the bug has something to do with following lines (422-438) in method.py, but can't figure out how to change it: def getFilename(self, h, timer, installed=0): if h[RCPFILELOCATIONTAG] is not None: return h[RCPFILELOCATIONTAG] ... if h[1000005] is None: path = self.packagesDir else: # Here it joins ../Updates directory to the pathname path = "%s/../Updates" %(self.packagesDir,) return "%s/%s/%s" %(self.mountpoint, path, h[1000000]) The bug is different from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109276, since manager uses correct "/mnt/cdrom/Fedora" path.
