New problem with yum after update!
 

Hi,
I have a Fedora 9 machine, following is the output of my uname -a

Linux homebaner.net 2.6.26.3-29.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Wed Sep 3 03:42:27 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I upgraded my system with standard yum update yesterday. Today when i tried to do a yum update again, i got the following error.


[root@ ~]# yum update
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in <module>

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I dont know if this problem has been seen before, but all the help is appreciated.

Hi,
I found the solution to this problem.
In the /usr/lib/yum-plugins/filter-data.py (the paths may differ), there was a missing colon on line 111. After editing the file, the problem was solved.


thanks
