Description of problem: When some repos/mirrorlist dirs are file:/// urls, yum now tries to remove the original rpm files from the repo (as if they were its cache files, perhaps). Fortunately my nfs-mounted repo is exported read-only, so it can't do any harm. But it's so, so wrong. This is a new problem that appeared in rawhide not too long ago, f7 et al are fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-3.2.2-3.fc8 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.have your mirrorlist url return a file:/// url for a repo 2.yum upgrade something 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
confirmed it happens - not sure why it just started happening, though. Nothing in it seems to be new.
nevermind - I figured out what changed and caused it and fixed it. Will be out in 3.2.3. Thanks.
yum-3.2.3-1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
