Description Florian Festi 2007-06-26 08:17:04 EDT

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.0-1.fc7

When trying to feed parameters to yum via xargs without -y (which is admittedly
an user error) yum trace backs.

cat pkglists.txt | xargs yum install
  
Actual results:

Is this ok [y/N]: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in <module>
    yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 172, in main
    base.doTransaction()
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 296, in doTransaction
    if not self.userconfirm():
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/output.py", line 115, in userconfirm
    choice = raw_input('Is this ok [y/N]: ')
EOFError: EOF when reading a line

Expected results:

Error message

Additional info:
Looks like there is some error handling code missing.

Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2007-06-26 18:31:25 EDT

Fixed in CVS

Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2007-07-23 11:46:55 EDT

yum-3.2.2-1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 3 Florian Festi 2007-07-24 09:59:43 EDT

Yeah, this problem was fixed! With this fix the program gets exactly one line
further:

Is this ok [y/N]: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in <module>
    yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 172, in main
    base.doTransaction()
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 299, in doTransaction
    if not self.userconfirm():
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/output.py", line 126, in userconfirm
    choice = choice.lower()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'lower'

Please change the line 125:
choice = []
to
choice = ''
