Comment 1 Ludwig Nussel 2006-08-01 11:37:51 UTC 
Yeah, it doesn't like some rpms for some reason. I don't remember what the problem was though. genIS_PLAINcache is from the old and obsolete package manager, noone is going to fix it anymore. Try rebuilding the offending packages packages as workaround.
Comment 2 Martin Pley 2006-08-01 11:53:37 UTC 
No,
1. It crashes even, when this directory is totally empty.
2. The basic problem is, that my y2pmbuild crashes, when I use a 9.2 installation source. So i cannot build packages for 9.2 with y2pmbuild anymore.
Comment 3 Martin Pley 2006-08-02 14:43:27 UTC 
If you don't want to fix it anymore, is it possible just to remove the handling of "plain" repositories in y2pmbuild? You could print a warning instead.
It's around line 110 in y2pmbuild in "regenrepository" function. You would just have to remove genIS_PLAINcache in the first if-switch.
