Description JokeDude 2007-09-13 07:22:59 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.4-2.fc7


How reproducible:
Not sure, happens sporadically, usually after reboot or network restart


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Yum takes a few minutes to start (GUI) and then display warning about a bug.

Expected results:
Yum should start almost immediately

Additional info:
I have experience of yum taking up to 10 minutes to activate the GUI once it is
loaded. The process is running and I cannot see any reason for the slow
response. DNS is working and I can connect to the web.

Forgot to mention, that after this error occurs, re-running Yum tends to work 100%

Comment 3 Seth Vidal 2007-09-13 12:46:38 UTC
reassigning to pirut

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2007-09-13 14:42:49 UTC
What are the contents of /etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux.repo.  Can you access the
URL listed in the file?

Comment 5 JokeDude 2007-09-13 15:32:13 UTC
/etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux.repo contents are:
---------------------------
[adobe-linux-i386]
name=Adobe Systems Incorporated
baseurl=http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/i386/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux

---------------------------

I can connect to the site via a web browser, but it says access forbidden


Comment 6 Jeremy Katz 2007-09-13 15:56:48 UTC
Can you access http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/i386/repodata/repomd.xml ?

(And fix is already in pirut to handle the error better, and will be pushed for
Fedora 7 within the next week or so.  But trying to get to he bottom of the error)

Comment 7 JokeDude 2007-09-14 07:48:37 UTC
I can access http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/i386/repodata/repomd.xml



Comment 8 Jeremy Katz 2007-10-16 18:14:56 UTC
An updated pirut packages is available in the Fedora 7 Updates Testing
repository which should help to resolve this problem.  Can you install this
package by running
   yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update pirut
and then see if you still can reproduce this problem?
