Hello, I have fully updated Fedora 11 x86_64 system, and when I run "preupgrade-cli" I get this: .. .. Saving Primary metadata Saving file lists metadata Saving other metadata Generating sqlite DBs (process:1779): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory. This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set. The overwriting error message was: Parsing primary.xml error: Couldn't find end of Start Tag rpm:entry line 99665 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/preupgrade/preupgrade-cli.py", line 305, in <module> pu.main(myrelease) File "/usr/share/preupgrade/preupgrade-cli.py", line 270, in main self.generate_repo(cachedir, comps) # TODO: callback?
