Description of problem: "yumdownloader --source kernel" not working. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-2.6.1-0.fc5 yum-fastestmirror-0.6-3.fc5 yum-utils-0.6-3.fc5 How reproducible: Didn't try to reinstall Fedora or yum to reproduce, but the system is almost a default installation. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Follow instructions to compile a new kernel from http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc5/release-notes-ISO/#id3092710 2. 3. Actual results: # yumdownloader --source kernel core [1/3] updates [2/3] extras [3/3] No Match for argument kernel Expected results: Download of kernel*.src.rpm Additional info:
The current release notes for this procedure are documented on the wiki at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Kernel, and should be correct. I will see if we can use the revisions to publish a new web-based version of the FC5 release notes.
OK, solved for FC6. Putting in a blocker against FC5 relnotes tracker; we can look at a new Web-based version of this, probably just by updating the XML manually, right? Or the HTML, if we want to be lazy, but it really needs to be in the source.
Fixed in current Wiki for some time, and current (FC6) and future relnotes.
