It's not a show stopper but I don't think it's supposed to happen this way.
I'm working in /root/livecd and installing the core package group into a
subdirectory called 'live' with the either commands. Both produce the same
outcome.
yum --installroot=/root/livecd/live install ...
yum -c live/etc/yum.conf --installroot=/root/livecd/live install ...
The directory is first prep'ed following Urs Beyerle's instructions on
making live cds. The install works fine but it creates
/root/livecd/live/root/livecd/live/var/lib/yum
and writes a file called transaction-all.xxxxxxxx there. Note the directory
path which repeats the current working directory. I would have thought the
installroot option would reorient yum so whatever it does is relative to the
install root, ie, the transaction file is written to
/root/livecd/live/var/lib/yum
instead of remembering where it was working from.
