Kurt,
I've updated yum-plugin-replace to version 0.2.4, which is now pushed to
ius-testing. Can you please test, and verify that this resolves your issues?
You can either wait 24 hours for all mirrors to be updated, or you can pull the
packages down directly from:

Can you tell what version of yum-plugin-replace and I'm not familiar with
yum-dump... Where can I get this for testing?
I will be in the office tomorrow and can assist further. Thank you

Hello,
(forewarning: I am writing this as a sysadmin on a CentOS host with IUS
installed by the host owner/user, but paltry knowledge of IUS)
I have been running Chef [1] on one of my CentOS 5.5 hosts. Recently,
either the host's owner installed IUS, or upgraded it [2], and now CentOS
and Chef are no longer on speaking terms. I traced the problem down to a
certain yum-dump.py [3] script within Chef, which works with stock Yum,
but gets very angry when package yum-plugin-replace has been installed
[4].
It looks like yum-plugin-replace overrode the preconf functions within
Python's yum. Can someone confirm that this is the case, and suggest a fix
and/or workaround for me? Confirming this problem should be simple:
- Retrieve yum-dump.py (from [3])
- On a system without yum-plugin-replace, run sudo python yum-dump.py
- Install yum-plugin-replace
- Run sudo python yum-dump.py once more
- (Optional) Bask in your god-like intelligence for knowing how to fix this
problem
Thanks,
-Kurt Yoder
