Can you run this python program for me?
#!/usr/bin/env python
import rpm
import rpmUtils.transaction
ts = rpmUtils.transaction.initReadOnlyTransaction()
ts.pushVSFlags(~(rpm._RPMVSF_NOSIGNATURES|rpm._RPMVSF_NODIGESTS))
idx = ts.dbMatch('provides', 'redhat-release')
print idx.count()
hdr = idx.next()
print hdr['version']

What do
rpm -q sl-release
sl-release-6.3-1.x86_64
yum provides redhat-release
This command fails with the same PYCURL ERROR 22
But the file /etc/redhat-release exists and contains
Scientific Linux release 6.3 (Carbon)
I suspect most dont see the error since they install many other
packages, one of which does the required magic. One we are creating is a
bare min for cloud work.
report?

Hi Pat,
Repo files are attached. I did an rpm install of
yum-conf-sl6x-1-2.noarch.rpm separately after the VM creation hoping
that it would fix the problem, but no luck.
Just a minor correction to my previous email, its not pycurl but yum
that is not able to expand the $releasever

Hi,
I created a minimal SL6 image with yum groups base+core and
openssh-server using
http://linux1.fnal.gov/linux/scientific/6x/x86_64/os/. Image is created
fine but when I boot up and try to run yum update it fails with errors
(see below). I also tried enabling and disabling mirrors doing yum clean
all every time before I run the update command.
I also noticed there is a /var/cache/yum/x86_64/$releasever dir.
Removing this $releasever dir does not help. It is recreated. For a
working system $releasever in the yum cache is actually expanded to the
respective versions but not in this case.
Is there a package pycurl depends on that is not pulled by default
making it unable to expand the $releasever correctly?
