Great!
Now I've discovered a problem with my Live USB system: yum is now
unhappy.
[liveuser@localhost ~]$ sudo yum update
Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
fedora/19/x86_64/metalink | 25 kB 00:00
Could not parse metalink
https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-19&arch=x86_64 error was
No repomd file
Error: File /var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/fedora/metalink.xml does not exist
I wonder how that happened. It isn't that the overlay is full:
[liveuser@localhost ~]$ sudo msetup status
live-osimg-min: 0 16777216 snapshot 4576/4576 32
live-rw: 0 16777216 snapshot 4228920/8386560 16464
I did shut the live system down properly after the update.
