check that "local" files are actually local #13

Open wgwoods opened 11 years ago

If you have (e.g.) a NFS repo, its url will be file:///... and yum will consider those packages to be local, and thus we won't cache them in /var. So then when you try to upgrade, they're not there, and the upgrade fails.

We need to check whether local files are really local - i.e. located on media that's definitely going to be mounted when we reboot.

This ties into the mount stuff we need to do in issue #9.

Also see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=980946 - fedup --iso with ISO on tmpfs. Need to check that the ISO is actually local, too.

also see #22. basically the system needs a "will this be here when I reboot?" oracle of some kind.
