Can you try updating the version of pirut to the newest in the updates repository (1.3.28-1.fc8) and see if this still occurs? It should be fixed there I think
I have pirut-1.3.28-1.fc8 I have this: Component: pirut Summary: TBaa979ac4 priorities.py:88:exclude_hook:AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'samearch' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 483, in <module> main() File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 479, in main pm.run() File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 407, in run self.doRefresh() File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 423, in doRefresh self.doRefreshRepos(self._onlyrepo) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pirut/__init__.py", line 339, in doRefreshRepos self.reposSetup(pbar, thisrepo) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pirut/__init__.py", line 303, in reposSetup self.doTsSetup() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/depsolve.py", line 72, in doTsSetup return self._getTs() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/depsolve.py", line 85, in _getTs self._getTsInfo() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/depsolve.py", line 91, in _getTsInfo self._tsInfo.setDatabases(self.rpmdb, self.pkgSack) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 529, in <lambda> pkgSack = property(fget=lambda self: self._getSacks(), File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 396, in _getSacks self.plugins.run('exclude') File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/plugins.py", line 169, in run func(conduitcls(self, self.base, conf, **kwargs)) File "/usr/lib/yum-plugins/priorities.py", line 88, in exclude_hook if opts.samearch: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'samearch' Local variables in innermost frame: conduit: <yum.plugins.MainPluginConduit instance at 0x9f1be4c> commands: None opts: None
This traceback is a different bug (bug 421961) and not related to the original report. The original report should be resolved with pirut-1.3.28-1.fc8 which is now available in the updates respository
