Description of problem: If you are in a sshfs directory YUM downloads the packages that you asked it to install, but when is going to install them, yum thinks that the packages should already be installed but when it checks, they are not present. As a result the whole installation fails printing the success of the installation Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 15 uname -a: Linux fale-netbook 2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686 #1 SMP Sun May 15 17:57:13 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux yum --version 3.2.29 Ignored option -q, -v, -d or -e (probably due to merging: -yq != -y -q) Installed: rpm-4.9.0-6.fc15.i686 at 2011-05-13 19:43 Built : Fedora Project at 2011-04-07 06:37 Committed: Panu Matilainen <pmatilai> at 2011-04-07 Installed: yum-3.2.29-5.fc15.noarch at 2011-05-29 10:02 Built : Fedora Project at 2011-05-11 15:19 Committed: James Antill <james at fedoraproject.org> at 2011-05-11 Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install fuse-sshfs 2. mkdir sshfs-folder 3. sshfs *user@host:/dir* sshfs-folder 4. cd sshfs-folder 5. yum install *whatever* Actual results: The installation seems to be completed, while no package is installed Expected results: The packages I asked to be installed should be installed
This feels like the rpm bug where it goes sideways with weird cwd perms/access.
