Re: [Kimchi-devel] [PATCH V2 1/2] bug fix: instantiate the Yum manager when update the yum packages list

From: ShaoHe Feng <shaohef(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com&gt; an instance just refresh packagekit once. for example: $ sudo PYTHONPATH=src python -c ' > from yum import YumBase > YumBase().doPackageLists("updates") > _yb = YumBase() > _yb.doPackageLists("updates") > _yb.doPackageLists("updates") > ' Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit you can seen the second _yb.doPackageLists will not refresh packagekit. The apt manager may also has the same problem. But not test it on ubuntu, will send a patch later after I have check.
