Thanks for reporting this: I've added a missing error path in libhif, but the root issue must be something to do with something in /etc/yum.repos.d/ -- can you install/rebuild the libhif package here http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/fedora/20/ please, install it then report the error back to this bz please?

A simple "pkcon search name power" should trigger the error. It'll probably involve something like a "corrupt"/invalid .repo file, and if so, can you attach that file also to this bz please so I can add it to the self tests. Cheers.

Hi Richard,

Thanks for looking into this so quickly. You were right, I had a stray line in one of the repo files due to a copy paste error. The file looked like this:

----------------------
[dnf-nightlies]
name=DNF nightlies for $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://jenkins.cloud.fedoraproject.org/job/DNF/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/fedora-$releasever-$basearch-build/
cost=3000
enabled=1
skip_if_unavailable=True
gpgcheck=0

It gives me:
----------------------

The last line being the stray one. I guess I didn't catch it because yum/dnf continued to ignore it and work properly. My mistake. Sorry :(

Warm regards,
Ankur
