The Yum package manager fails when the yum server is not available.

Reported by: peiriannydd Assigned to: lutter
Priority: normal Milestone: misspiggy
Component: library Version: 0.23.1
Severity: normal Keywords: yum
Cc: Triage Stage: Accepted
Attached Patches: Code Complexity: Unknown

Description

There was no error handling in the Puppet yum package manager for the case where you were checking the 'latest' version of a package.

Added a small patch that throws a warning and then runs 'installed' instead of querying the server.

This patch should be improved in the future to provide more fine grained feedback to the user.

[8722e439b71de005a56820b3e3cf704e3a5b5c8c] makes deep changes to the provider. The patch thus doesn't apply anymore to HEAD. Please check whether these changes have fixed the problem already.
