After spending some time on freshrpm.net I'm not finding examples or docu that explains what I need in yum.conf to access the repositories. This would be for a mainly rawhide installation.
Would I aim at what freshrpms.net calls FedoraLinux 3 or do they have devel directory ...
Trying the address of there Fed3 (Heidleburg) in yum http://heidelberg.freshrpms.net/
Doesn't find the right stuff for yum:
Yum Version: 2.1.13 COMMAND: yum search transcode Installroot: / Ext Commands: transcode
Searching Packages: Setting up Repos
Baseurl(s) for repo: ['http://heidelberg.freshrpms.net/'] http://heidelberg.freshrpms.net/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found
I didn't find direction on there web pages but it does say its accessable to yum.

I think you just need this section:

Yup. That was it. Worked good too I asked for transcode and it found the other packages I needed to run it. Thanks.

Get yourself yumex, http://linux.rasmil.dk, and it will do nearly all work for you. :-)

Thanks for the link. The program looks like it will make installing new packages less of a challenge.
It does still have bugs (like most things). On my first attempt at using yumex, It gave me this error.

I looked recently at yumex-0.30-3.tla.1.FC3, and of FC3, and it seemed to work as advertised. If you are doing that on rawhide that quite possible that Python code required some changes. After all such Python things like rhn-applet-gui stopped to work there after recent updates.

I am just getting ready to head for rawhide. I guess I'll hold off for awhile. Currently, I have these python related rpms installed.
I was able to check out the program for what did work. The progrm is well thought out and full of features that make the program appealing, easy to use and it shows that the delevopers have both an artistic look and usability are their strongpoints. I did cross the summary field and saw that the word was spelled summery. Is this a variance for spelling this word in other than US English? I know that there are a few differences in British and US English, just a curiosity.

I just ended up getting the >>> prompt with no additional feedback. I assume that it was satisfied with the import command. This is with gnome-python2-2.6.0-3 This is running on a laptop. It has been awhile since I ran prelink. Maybe prelink needs to be run after installing new python applications, I'll give it a try. Thanks for the idea.

The problem you are seeing is not the same as the report Michal referenced about python behavior in the development tree. My comment was in response to Michal's post and the cited bugreport. "Fatal Python error: could not import gnomevfs" is a specific error message and if you aren't seeing that message then you have a different problem.

I see what you were referring to now regarding the import problem with python.
yum clean packages Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ? import yummain File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ? import yum ImportError: No module named yum
and
up2date Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 11, in ? import rpm ImportError: No module named rpm
I started the rawhide trail anyway. Two versions of gnome-python2 are installed now. Maybe the reinstalling manually cleared up the "leftover" portions of of the first python intermingling with the newer version.
gnome-python2-2.6.0-3 gnome-python2-2.9.4-2

It seems that this error causes a lot of corruption to the rpm database. A slew of packages were installed, but not the db entries. I'm trying to save from closing up2date down on a force kill. It seems to cause the database corruption and makes upgrading pretty difficult.
It looks like 2.9.4-2 is the culpret. Though up2date that was used for the install is staying at the system-config-printer-gui rpm on the installation.
Sorry for not niticing the correct person that the post was directed to for subject matter.

It seems you're right, however just uninstalling/re-installing gnome- python2 did not work for me. I had to install gnome-python2-gnomevfs, after which the problem disappear.
