*** Bug 1062180 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Follow-up: I set base.conf.cachedir to '/var/tmp/jfilak_dnf_donwloader/' and I got the following exception:

Is there something wrong on these lines?
base.conf.cachedir = "/var/tmp/jfilak_dnf_donwloader"
base.fill_sack()
(In reply to Jakub Filak from comment #2) > > Is there something wrong on these lines? > base.conf.cachedir = "/var/tmp/jfilak_dnf_donwloader" > base.fill_sack() Yes, the function calls are in a bad order. All my calls: base.read_all_repos() base.conf.cachedir = "/var/tmp/jfilak_dnf_donwloader" base.fill_sack() The correct order: base.conf.cachedir = "/var/tmp/jfilak_dnf_donwloader" base.read_all_repos() base.fill_sack() Thank you, Radek Holy! *** Bug 1188186 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** dnf-plugins-core-0.1.5-1.fc21,hawkey-0.5.3-2.fc21,dnf-0.6.4-1.fc21 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 21. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/dnf-plugins-core-0.1.5-1.fc21,hawkey-0.5.3-2.fc21,dnf-0.6.4-1.fc21 Package hawkey-0.5.3-2.fc21, dnf-plugins-core-0.1.5-1.fc21, dnf-0.6.4-1.fc21: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 21 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.

Description of problem: I am working on a script for downloading of custom packages identified by file names. When I call dnf.Base.fill_sack() I get the following exception: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dnf/base.py", line 216, in fill_sack self._sack.load_system_repo(build_cache=True) IOError: Failed writing the cache. Radek Holy advised me to set base.conf.cachedir to a pathe where I have write rights. I think DNF should configure base.conf.cachedir on its own, because I as an application developer don't want to care about such things. Aas a bonus, all DNF API consumers would use the same cache.
