Description of problem: [baz@jackodesktop ~]$ mgarepo maintdb get We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things: #1) Respect the privacy of others. #2) Think before you type. #3) With great power comes great responsibility. sudo: a terminal is required to read the password; either use the -S option to read from standard input or configure an askpass helper sudo: a password is required error: command failed: ssh maintdb.mageia.org /usr/local/bin/wrapper.maintdb get [baz@jackodesktop ~]$ Something really odd here which has happened in cauldron in the last few days.
I don't understand where '/usr/local/bin/wrapper.maintdb' has come from. Why would anything packaged be under /usr/local/? [baz@jackodesktop ~]$ urpmf /bin/wrapper.maintdb Duplicate specification "version" for option "version" Duplicate specification "debug" for option "debug" So it seems wrapper.maintdb does not exist in cauldron.
Thank you for the report. mgarepo has not changed since 8 months. Assigning directly to papoteur who committed v1.14.6.

I noticed last night that urpmf did not list the repos it was searching unless it was run with -v
My hypothesis is that something changed on the server side. The command "ssh maintdb.mageia.org /usr/local/bin/wrapper.maintdb get" is to execute on the server side. Adding sysadmins to the discussion

Sorry, I did break it. Fix is incoming. For the record, an alternative and much faster way of doing this is "curl --compressed -sSf https://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/data/maintdb.txt | grep <nick>"
