[FC3] Hi As many ppl have read or expirenced, yum updates are suddenly turned into a nightmare. For 3 days now i cant update the system (and cPanel uses it too and hangs also with updates). ################### # yum clean all (i hated this because it deleted 200+ packages that i wanted to save for future boxes to update with to save bandwidth) Cleaning up Everything 0 headers removed 0 packages removed 0 metadata files removed 0 cache files removed # yum update Setting up Update Process Setting up Repos core 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 dries 100% |=========================| 0 B 00:00 //var/cache/yum/dries/repomd.xml:1: parser error : Document is empty ^ //var/cache/yum/dries/repomd.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: dries Error importing repomd.xml from dries: Error: could not parse file //var/cache/yum/dries/repomd.xml ####### At the moment is stalls on "dries" but also happens on the others. This are the repo's i use: ######## -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 129 Sep 21 19:04 dag.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 163 Sep 21 19:04 dries.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 255 Sep 21 19:04 extras.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233 Sep 21 19:04 fedora-devel.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 244 Sep 21 19:04 fedora.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 280 Sep 21 19:04 fedora-updates.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 282 Sep 21 19:04 fedora-updates-testing.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 477 Sep 21 19:04 freshrpms.repo ######### and disabled the -testing -devel repo's. I was in need to install a package but i went to the orginal site and downloaded a source and compiled it. I realy want to see this fixed. Because i am not the only user and i was not the first reporter of this. I hope the FC team / yum team will take a close look on this.
