The description as listed in 1.5.1-3 is missing the examples of OSes which do not support poll, so reading it is difficult.

I've attached a new spec (easier than a diff).

python 2.7.6 says:

[c:\]python
Python 2.7.6 (default, Dec 12 2015, 04:56:50)
[GCC 4.9.2] on os2knix
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> print sys.maxunicode
65535

which indicates ucs2. For such things as reported in ticket #88, i.e., support for DBCS systems, we need ucs4.

Marking this as a task with major priority with medium severity because currently YUM apparently does not work on (all? some?) DBCS systems.

(Summary is subject to clarification).

I've been experimenting with yum-plugin-replace, and will submit a package for that handy plugin shortly. Replacing as many of my i386 packages with pentium4 packages, I ran into the following situation:

[c:\]yum replace bzip2-libs --replace-with bzip2-libs

determined that:

bzip2-libs bzip2-devel bzip2

all needed to be replaced with pentium4 builds. bzip2-libs and bzip2-devel replaced fine (as did 30+ other packages when I replaced them). bzip2 fails to install with:

Error unpacking rpm package bzip2-1.0.6-5.oc00.pentium4
error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: read
Warning: scriptlet or other non-fatal errors occurred during transaction.
What is this? bzip2-1.0.6-5.oc00.pentium4
VerifyTransaction time: 0.011
Transaction time: 0.517

The same error is thrown for i686.

I can manually extract both of those packages via unrpm, have copied the contents where required, and have tested that bzip2 itself works. I have not examined the rpm to determine whether there is, in fact, any defect at all.

cpio is cpio-2.11-4.oc00.pentium4 (tried with i386 first, then replaced i386 cpio with pentium4).

Workaround is after using unrpm to extract, running:

[c:\]rpm -i --justdb bzip2-1.0.6-5.oc00.pentium4.rpm

which satisfies the db requirement, at least.
