Description Jan Kratochvil 2009-01-12 17:06:26 UTC 
Created attachment 328764 [details]
+keepcache=1

Description of problem:
Specifying --cache works if the image creation fails.  It gets reused afterwards.  But if we successfully create an image YUM itself deletes all the rpm files and next run of livecd-creator starts to download it all again.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
livecd-tools-020-1.fc10.x86_64
yum-3.2.20-5.fc10.noarch

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. livecd-creator -c psi-i686.ks --cache=./cache

Actual results:
Resulting ./cache is about 500MB.

Expected results:
Resulting ./cache about 2GB.

Additional info:
I did not check how this option behaves without --cache specified.  But as the directory gets deleted completely by livecd-creator it should not be a problem.
