    Error, need help

    Hi, I'm using Fedore 10 and every time I try to check updates or add ad remove software or install anything I get this error message:

    Error Type: Error Value: 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 2314, in main() File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 2311, in main backend.dispatcher(sys.argv[1:]) File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/packagekit/backend.py, line 600, in dispatcher self.dispatch_command(args[0], args[1:]) File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/packagekit/backend.py, line 562, in dispatch_command self.search_group(options, searchterms) File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 439, in search_group self._check_init(lazy_cache=True) File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 1995, in _check_init self.yumbase.repos.doSetup() File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/repos.py, line 71, in doSetup self.ayum.plugins.run('postreposetup') File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/plugins.py, line 178, in run func(conduitcls(self, self.base, conf, **kwargs)) File : /usr/lib/yum-plugins/rpm-warm-cache.py, line 32, in postreposetup_hook cmd = commands[0]

    does anyone know what it means or what I can do to get rid of the error?

    Do you have internet access on this computer?
    And what packages are you trying to download?

    yum update yum rpm
    yum update

    I don't actually use Fedora, but I googled "object is unscriptable packagekit yum" and there it was.
