Hi
I have a problem and google is not helping out.
Yum now is not working, it stops with a StopIteration error.
I have tried to rebuild the db, and also reinstall with --force but it does not help.
Rebuilddb does nothing and reinstalling yum with rpm --force ask for a lot of dependencies that are already satisfied
(python, for example).
funny thing, now rpm -qa shows nothing.
and yum clean all gives me:
[root@bloody yum.repos.d]# yum clean all
"installonlyn" plugin is disabled
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ?
yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 85, in main
base.getOptionsConfig(args)
File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 199, in getOptionsConfig
errorlevel=opts.errorlevel)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 125, in doConfigSetup
self.conf = config.readMainConfig(startupconf)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/config.py", line 597, in readMainConfig
vars['releasever'] = _getsysver(startupconf.installroot, startupconf.distroverpkg
)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/config.py", line 662, in _getsysver
hdr = idx.next()
StopIteration
I disabled the installonly plugin just in case.
Could someone help me out to recover from this? I would rather not have to reinstall FC6 all over again.
thanks
