From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051129 Fedora/1.5-1 Firefox/1.5 Description of problem: The yum CVS in rawhide is not showing packages in the development repository. The cause seems to be that it is using the extras-development metadata to build the development cache. This hides all the true development packages and reports extras-development packages as development. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-2.5.0-0.20051210 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum clean metadata 2. yum list kde\* Actual Results: Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up repositories extras-development 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 development 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 936 kB 00:25 extras-dev: ################################################## 2607/2607 Added 0 new packages, deleted 1 old in 2.32 seconds primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 936 kB 00:08 developmen: ################################################## 2607/2607 Added 0 new packages, deleted 1 old in 2.51 seconds Available Packages kdesvn.x86_64 0.7.0-0.rc1.fc5 development Notice that none of the kde packages in core showed up. kdesvn is actually in extras. Also, the count of packages for development is the same as extras (2607). development should have more like 4635 packages. The /var/cache/yum/development files are the same as /var/cache/yum/extras-development files. The /var/cache/yum/development/repomd.xml seems to be the extras one. The /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-devel.repo and fedora-extras-devel.repo are unchanged. I checked all the mirrors and they have the correct repomd.xml. Expected Results: Doing this works: yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=development list kde\* Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up repositories development 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 1.3 MB 00:06 developmen: ################################################## 4635/4635 Added 4635 new packages, deleted 2608 old in 20.59 seconds Available Packages kde-i18n-Arabic.noarch 1:3.5.0-1.1 development kde-i18n-Bengali.noarch 1:3.5.0-1.1 development Additional info: This happens with yum-2.5.0-0.20051210 and yum-2.5.0-0.20051207.
This problem has gone away with yum-2.5.0-4.
