Description of problem: while doing a yum localinstall the application checks for new repo xml(?) files from the internet and if necessary will download the updates. the problem occurs when the bandwidth is limited. why check for new repo files if doing a localinstall with _no_ dependencies?. yum should first check the rpm to see if it has dependencies, if it does then there is no argument that it should go thru the process of checking for new xml files from the yum repo and download them Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1.get on a low bandwidth connection 2.do a localinstall 3. Actual results: uses the internet for a localinstall Expected results: only use the internet if a dependency needs to be installed from the net Additional info: no idea if this is applicable for no internet connection
So there are two problems here: 1. If there are any missing deps. ... we need to setup the repos. ... and atm. we setup the repos. before the command runs. 2. If obsoletes=true (the default), then we need to look at the repos. anyway to check for obsoletes.

This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
