Incorrect info in .treeinfo file
 

As per http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=5237 the .treeinfo file
still has a reference to boot.iso although it doesn't exist.

This breaks 'smart mirror' stuff like pulp from syncing properly as it
exits on the non-existent file when setting up a distribution tree for
kickstart purposes.

Any one with access able to remove/correct the errant line?

Regards,

James

Yes ... we are looking at that issue in 6.1 right now.

this is fixed in the 6.1 media, I can change this in the
mirror.centos.org http mirrors, but ofcourse its not going to get fixed
in the 6.0 media out there :)

No worries on the media KB - I can fix my own media - it's just about
syncing with upstream ;)

Have you test with that line gone from .treeinfo ? Does the key still
need to exist ? I suspect were going to break other apps by completely
removing the key

Over this way things still appeared to work fine with that particular
line gone but honestly I haven't had time here to to exhaustive
multiple tests beyond pulp sync against a repo with that line gone and
some kickstart installs here with it gone.....

If you guys are already working through a similar issue in QA for 6.1
then let it be settled there and ignore the current mirrors for now -
I can work around it in my environment here so it isn't a significant
issue for me - just wanted to highlight it given that pointing to a
file that doesn't exist is naturally bad behaviour from general
perspective.....

Unfortunately I don't even have any upstream media here to confirm
what that says given that boot.iso was removed with 6.0 and is a 5.X
item...

I do wonder what other apps might be reading it and how they are
behaving given the file doesn't exist.
