[DONE] urpmi spurting errors

I use...
Code: Select all
urpmi --auto-update --auto

...to update my install every once in a while, and it seems to still be working just fine, but it coughs this first:
Use of chdir('') or chdir(undef) as chdir() is deprecated at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/urpm/download.pm line 729, <$aria2> line 517.
Use of chdir('') or chdir(undef) as chdir() is deprecated at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/urpm/download.pm line 949.


It might be nothing, probably, but is it reproducible?

Well, if it is reproducible for you, best take a look at the man page for urpmi in the section "BUG REPORTS"
and create a bugreport for it as described here https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly and then create a tarball from the directory created by urpmi --bug and attach it in that bugreport.

This code
Code: Select all
urpmi --bug
Just prints the "urpmi --help" results to screen. Am I missing an argument?


Has no one else seen this?

It is no longer reproducible.

Weird. It concerns me.

Yes, you need to add a directory name, which is then created by urpmi and filled with diagnostic information.
