Description of problem: Recently a patch was added to yum to have it working even if /dev/log exists, but is not working (kickstart installs and %post script). Now yum does work in such a kickstart %post script, but tracebacks with the following lines after doing a package install: Error in atexit._run_exitfuncs: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/atexit.py", line 24, in _run_exitfuncs func(*targs, **kargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/logging/__init__.py", line 1333, in shutdown h.close() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/logging/handlers.py", line 642, in close if self.unixsocket: AttributeError: SysLogHandler instance has no attribute 'unixsocket' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Hrm, this really looks like a python bug...
Fixed in yum CVS, will be in the next build
Still not working with current trees, did this get lost? regards, Florian La Roche
It should have been fixed in 3.0-6 afaik. Was it not?
Still happened with the -6 release. regards, Florian La Roche
Bump - any update on this problem. Was/is it a python issue?
It was a python bug and the fix is included in python 2.5 for F7
