Every time I've run smart for the past month or so, it spews out errors. If I remove /var/lib/smart/cache and /var/lib/smart/channels and try again, it makes no difference. As an example, every single repo gives this error when I run smart update:
error: Invalid package file format. Invalid header found.
You will have to look at the text generated during 'smart update' for
the gulty site, denoted by "error", and remove:
/var/lib/smart/channels/
There are always errors like this as well:
Fetching information for 'Packman 3rd Party Package Repository'... -> http://packman.inode.at/suse/10.1/repodata/repomd.xml repomd.xml
#################################################################################### [52%] error: Invalid XML file: error: /var/lib/smart/channels/packman%%http:__packman.inode.at_suse_10.1_repodata_repomd.xml error: http://packman.inode.at/suse/10.1/repodata/repomd.xml error: mismatched tag: line 11, column 2
What can I do to fix this?
remove the guilty file, /var/lib/smart/channels/packman%%http:__packman.inode.at_suse_10.1_repodata_repomd.xml Smart should be capable (smart enough) of self-policing itself, removing the errant files itself. I questioned this on the smart-list and was told what caused the error, but them seemed uninterested in making an automatic correction available. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 OpenSUSE Linux http://en.opensuse.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
