Hi,

Thanks for highlighting these Yum issues. I'd like to get as much of this
info as I can into our Knowledge base.

It looks like several people on the list have hit the bug mentioned (448012)

For that issue, we've put together this kbase:

Sam,

But if we downgrade to yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.2-3.el5.noarch.rpm then we

Hi Kent,

This is a good point. I realize that neither solution is perfect (downgrade and you get the bugs that the version fixed, stay the same and you get the bug that this version introduced). We have the fix, but the packages need to go through QA testing before they are released.

If you have a Red Hat subscription there are two other options:

* Get the beta package from RHN
* Contact support for more options (http://support.redhat.com)

If you don't have a subscription, I can see about getting the patch posted the BZ so you can grab it and build a package. Would that help?

I do appreciate you communicating with us.
Thanks,
Kent
