messages when updating , and [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (-3, Temporary ... - test - Fedora mailing-lists

15 May 2008


      Dear all,
After the release of Fedora 9, the testing machines
have been left pointing to straight Fedora 9, and to
continue running rawhide one has to disable 
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo 
by changing 1 to 0 and
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-rawhide.repo
by changing 0 to 1 
and there we go back2rawhide,
There are too many mirror failures and messages about
ERROR:dbus.connection:Unable to set arguments
('posttrans',) according to signature '': <type
'exceptions.TypeError'>: Fewer items found in D-Bus
signature than in Python arguments

I have about two weeks left of testing and I want to
continue running rawhide.  I ran it on two machines
for a good while since the second release of Fedora
testing Beta if I am not mistaken and the other one
since Fedora 6 Test 2.
Why are there too many errors with the mirrors?
Regards,
Antonio
