Description of problem: I've tried to run following command: sudo dnf groupinstall gnome-software-development And got following output: Last metadata expiration check performed 2:16:51 ago on Mon Jun 1 02:19:52 2015. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/bin/dnf", line 36, in <module> main.user_main(sys.argv[1:], exit_code=True) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/cli/main.py", line 185, in user_main errcode = main(args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/cli/main.py", line 84, in main return _main(base, args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/cli/main.py", line 134, in _main cli.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/cli/cli.py", line 1077, in run return self.command.run(self.base.extcmds) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/cli/commands/group.py", line 385, in run return self.base.env_group_install(patterns, types) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/base.py", line 1253, in env_group_install res.groups, types) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/comps.py", line 88, in install_or_skip logger.warning("%s, %s", str(e)[:-1], _("skipping.")) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfd' in position 10: ordinal not in range(128) This problem exists only with gnome-software-development group. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ➜ dnf --version 1.0.0 Nainstalováno: dnf-0:1.0.0-1.fc22.noarch na 2015-05-13 13:04 Sestaveno : Fedora Project na 2015-05-02 13:00 Nainstalováno: rpm-0:4.12.0.1-9.fc22.x86_64 na 2015-05-13 13:01 Sestaveno : Fedora Project na 2015-04-15 09:21 Fedora 22. How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. run command sudo dnf groupinstall gnome-software-development 2. 3. Actual results: see higher part of bug-report. Expected results: dnf installs requested groups or reports it unavailability. Additional info:
Running install as follows* also gives same problem. sudo dnf install @gnome-software-development
Also, with a bit more of the research, this seems to be a translation issue in case of group is already installed. ➜ ~ env LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 sudo dnf group install gnome-software-development [sudo] password for neko: Last metadata expiration check performed 2:30:18 ago on Mon Jun 1 02:19:52 2015. Group 'GNOME Software Development' is already installed, skipping. Dependencies resolved. Is this ok [y/N]: y Complete!
More research indicates that this is fixed in git version of dnf. Hope that would get to 22. :) Thanks, can be closed.
