yum update problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Yesterday I ran a rather complicated yum install,
for which I had to enablerepo=development ,
and today when I run "yum update" I get the error
==========================================
[tim@william 2004]$ sudo yum update
Traceback (most recent call last):

    code, msg, hdrs = response.code, response.msg, response.info()
AttributeError: HTTPResponse instance has no attribute 'code'
==========================================

What is the solution?
(And what is the problem?)

[Briefly, how I got into this position:
system-config-printer did not appear to be working,
so I removed it with "rpm -e"
and then tried to re-install it with yum install.
This turned out to require me to enablerepo development,
as at some time in the past - quite a long time ago -
I inadvertently updated with the development repository enabled.]

Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.

Ps I find yum a marvellous resource -
but when it doesn't work,
I find the python error messages difficult to interpret.
