I'm seeing this error when trying to do a newRepo task on my local koji server, using rawhide as an external repo:
2101/14674 - python-decoratortools-1.7-4.fc12.noarch 2102/14674 - ruby-atk-0.19.1-2.fc12.ppc Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/libexec/kojid/mergerepos", line 241, in <module> main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/usr/libexec/kojid/mergerepos", line 236, in main merge.write_metadata() File "/usr/libexec/kojid/mergerepos", line 216, in write_metadata mdgen.doPkgMetadata() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/createrepo/__init__.py", line 364, in doPkgMetadata self.writeMetadataDocs(packages) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/createrepo/__init__.py", line 527, in writeMetadataDocs self.primaryfile.write(po.xml_dump_primary_metadata()) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/packages.py", line 1015, in xml_dump_primary_metadata msg += misc.to_unicode(self._dump_format_items()) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/packages.py", line 894, in _dump_format_items msg += self._dump_pco('provides') File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/packages.py", line 919, in _dump_pco msg += pcostring UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xec in position 28: ordinal not in range(128) [r...@koji 97]# The builders and hub are all running a fully updated F11. This is the first newRepo task after the repo addition, so it's all purely from rawhide. I see that there was a similar report of this in the past, but I don't see a resolution? Is there a patch I need to apply, or do I have to block the erroring packages in koji, or? Help would be appreciated. (I'm also confused why the main koji instance isn't hitting this). josh -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list
