Description of problem: After installing any software using Pirut, I get the following: --- Component: Software Manager Summary: TB5acb99f7 __init__.py:490:_getGroups:GroupsError: No Groups Available in any repository Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 115, in _pageSwitch self.pageMap[num]() File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 291, in _showBrowse grpsel.doRefresh() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pirut/GroupSelector.py", line 473, in doRefresh if len(self.ayum.comps.categories) == 0: File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 517, in <lambda> comps = property(fget=lambda self: self._getGroups(), File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 490, in _getGroups raise Errors.GroupsError, 'No Groups Available in any repository' GroupsError: No Groups Available in any repository Local variables in innermost frame: repo: scmyumrepo-updates reposWithGroups: [] self: <__main__.PackageManager object at 0x10541810> e: requested datatype group not available overwrite: False ---------------- It's using a local repo file pointing to a local mirror. The error may indeed be correct but I feel it should handle it gracefully. As a side-note, pirut says: "An unhandled exception has occurred... <snip> file a detailed report against _Software Manager_ at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla" This seems a little misleading to me because AFAIK there's no component called Software Manager in BZ. Perhaps saying "file agains pirut" would be more accurate. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pirut-1.3.7-1.fc7 How reproducible: Load Pirut. Install any software. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load Software Manager 2. Install some software 3. Unhandled exception warning then quits. Actual results: Unhandled exception Expected results: The exception should be handled... I guess. Additional info:
What version of yum do you have installed?
yum-3.2.0-1 As a jic, the arch is ppc64 even though yum and pirut are noarch.
Okay, I think I see the case I missed. Will be fixed in pirut-1.3.8 which I'll push to rawhide and then likely as an F7 update a little bit after.
Thanks very much.
