Description Dennis Jacobfeuerborn 2010-02-12 23:31:25 UTC
I'm trying to build a live-cd in a rawhide VM. livecd-creator downloads the primary.sqlite.bz2 file and then aborts with the following strange error:

Error creating Live CD: Unable to download from repo: database is locked

What is this supposed to tell me? Is this some problem on the remote site or something I have to fix locally?
livecd-creator should be more clear about what the actual problem is so the user can take appropriate action.

Comment 1 Bug Zapper 2010-03-15 14:32:45 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle.
Changing version to '13'.

Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2010-05-07 15:40:55 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 3 Jasper O'neal Hartline 2010-08-04 17:37:08 UTC
Can you reproduce the issue with the latest livecd-tools?

Comment 4 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2010-10-21 17:57:18 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 5 Brian Lane 2010-10-22 23:23:39 UTC
I think that message is from yum or rpm and references the rpm database.

Comment 6 Brian Lane 2010-11-11 01:17:49 UTC
Not sure what the problem you were running into was, but building a minimal livecd from rawhide is currently working.
