Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-3.2.8-2.fc8 How reproducible: yum info freetype-demos (first noticed doing "yum info freetype\*" because I couldn't remember the name of the subpackage I wanted) Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum info freetype-demos 2. look at output 3. profit...? Actual results: [root@bill ~]# yum info freetype-demos Available Packages Name : freetype-demos Arch : i386 Version: 2.3.5 Release: 3.fc8 Size : 221 k Repo : fedora Summary: A collection of FreeType demos Description: El motor FreeType es un motor de renderizado de fuentes libre y portable desarrollado para proporcionar soporte avanzado de fuentes a una variedad de plataformas y entornos.

Expected results: [root@bill ~]# repoquery -qi freetype-demos Name : freetype-demos Version : 2.3.5 Release : 3.fc8 Architecture: i386 Size : 476116 Packager : Fedora Project Group : System Environment/Libraries URL : http://www.freetype.org Repository : fedora Summary : A collection of FreeType demos Description : The FreeType engine is a free and portable font rendering engine, developed to provide advanced font support for a variety of platforms and environments. The demos package includes a set of useful small utilities showing various capabilities of the FreeType library. Additional info:
not positive if this should be assigned to specspo or rpm. Feel free to correct me if specspo is wrong.
Can't reproduce here at home, either with the original fedora repo or my local copy. Will try it again at work tomorrow (all I can think of is some random corruption of the sqlite db).
the translation info isn't stored in the sqlite db. So I doubt it is corruption there.
