I don't suppose you typed "Ctrl-D" instead of "y" or "n"?
No, the output you saw was from a script, which ran
yum -e 0 -d 1 list updates ; yum -e 0 -d 1 update
If you suspect some problem with ^D, then perhaps I should add -y to the command line(s).
How are you running the script? At a shell prompt, or from a cron job? Where does standard input for the script come from?
Is this repeatable?
It happened on two different machines, so it is repeatable, However, running just a
yum list updates
and then
yum update
later, by hand, ran just fine, without any errors (and where I typed in 'y' at the question)
Do you want the updates installed unconditionally? If so, add the -y option. If you want to decide interactively, you certainly won't want to use -y.
Mumph.
Any further thoughts?
P.S. Please don't Cc: me on replies to the list; I read the list and don't need two copies of the mail.
