Hi,

not sure what the problem is :(

I am running yum 3.2.29 + createrepo 0.9.9

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,

updaterepo only works on existing repos. That means, you have to create yum metadata per createrepo /srv/inst/rhel/6.4/extra and can use updaterepo for the next updates.

Yep, that's why I also thought, check this out:

installer:/tmp/repo # createrepo -d .
Spawning worker 0 with 139 pkgs
Workers Finished

Not sure if I am doing something wrong then?

[heroldus]

Could you please send me the result of:

ls -al /tmp/repo/repodata

[heroldus]

And which version of createrepo are you using?

[m4ce]

installer:/tmp/repo # ls -lrt repodata/*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9501 Nov 19 13:54 repodata/primary.xml.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18891 Nov 19 13:54 repodata/other.xml.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6807 Nov 19 13:54 repodata/filelists.xml.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2279 Nov 19 13:54 repodata/repomd.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26440 Nov 19 13:54 repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19878 Nov 19 13:54 repodata/filelists.sqlite.bz2

version 0.9.9, but i also tried against 0.9.8 :)

Thanks,
Matteo

May I should fix the code to do nothing, if no RPM was added or deleted.

[m4ce]

It doesn't work in any case, on delete/add. I've tested different scenarios:

installer:/tmp/repo # /usr/share/createrepo/updaterepo.py .
Delete: []
Add : ['createrepo-0.10-100.noarch.rpm']

What createrepo version did you test it against?

[TheTeraByte]

@m4ce did you ever manage to fix this issue? I am running into it as well, though I think it is a bug in the createrepo utility. (createrepo version 0.10.3)

[heroldus]

@TheTeraByte I'm sorry, but I'm not maintaining the repository anymore. I think the createrepo uses a different format for the metadata, now. That's why the the code doesn't work anymore out of the box.
