Hello all, I'm attempting to make maintenance of Fedora Tracker easier by replacing as much of the back-end as possible with yum code. Since Tracker runs as non-root, it seemed that the easiest way to do this would be to create a trackerRoot directory with its own config files, cache directory, etc. I looked at the code for YumBase.doGenericSetup() and basically followed that with one extra argument to doConfigSetup() to get Yum to use the nonstandard directory. The repo file being used is a standard fedora-core.repo and doGenericSetup() works, and yet...
import yum my=yum.YumBase() my.doConfigSetup(root="/home/brad/Work/yum/trackerRoot")
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
my.conf.cache=0 my.doTsSetup() my.doRpmDBSetup() my.doRepoSetup()
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<input>", line 1, in ? File "yum/__init__.py", line 309, in doRepoSetup repo.setup(self.conf.cache, self.mediagrabber) File "yum/yumRepo.py", line 585, in setup self.baseurlSetup() File "yum/yumRepo.py", line 428, in baseurlSetup self.check() File "yum/yumRepo.py", line 312, in check raise Errors.RepoError, \ RepoError: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core The procedure above duplicates what the source says doGenericSetup() does, and yet it acts as though there's something wrong with the .repo file when I do it, but not when doGenericSetup() does it. Obviously I'm missing something here. Does anyone have an idea what?
