dextrose)

Hmm... i never got this error before:

1) Does the download seem to succeed?

2) Can you try to download the file from this url with wget?

http://download.sugarlabs.org/dextrose/testing/dxo2/rpms/i386/os/sugar-0.88.1-5.43dxo.fc11.noarch.rpm

3) Can you break the build with ^Z and check if

/var/tmp/imgcreate-*/install_root/var/cache/yum/dextrose-dxo2/packages/sugar-0.88-*

exists?

4) if everything else fails, find the code in osbuilder that cleans up
the imgcreate directory after a failure and comment it out. This will
make debugging easier.
