Hi all, Just for asking a help. I'm working with Fedora 12(fc12) and when I want to install a new software, there's an error message which is always displayed. Here is its whole description:

Traceback (most recent call last):  File "/usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py", line 2956, in __init__    self.repos.confirm_func = self._repo_gpg_confirm  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 717, in <lambda>    repos = property(fget=lambda self: self._getRepos(),  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 496, in _getRepos    self.conf # touch the config class first  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 723, in <lambda>    conf = property(fget=lambda self: self._getConfig(),  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 290, in _getConfig    self.getReposFromConfig()  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 397, in getReposFromConfig    self.getReposFromConfigFile(repofn, repo_age=thisrepo_age)  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 330, in getReposFromConfigFile    raise Errors.ConfigError, msg ConfigError: File contains no section headers. file: file://///etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux-i386.repo, line: 1 'su -\n'

I want that you help me to correct these errors so that I can enjoy GNU services and favours.

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards.

Hi,

This is the french Fedora user mailing list. Better for you would be to ask on the general users mailing list[1]. There are several resources for you, shown there[2].

Your problem comes from the adobe repo, defined on the file "etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux-i386.repo" This file is probably miss written. You should check it (is it starting with "[adobe-linux-i386]"). If you are trying to install the adobe component, better to see with them as this repo has nothing to do with the Fedora Project. If not, just remove this file it should works.

An important notice is that Fedora 12 is not maintained anymore, you should think about a migration to F15 (or even better Fedora 16 who is coming soon).
