[Yum-devel] [PATCH] Use os.open instead of open

[Zdeněk Pavlas]

Builtin open() function works only with files.
We should start reading logger.critical messages.

>>> os.open('.', os.O_RDONLY)
3
>>> open('.')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
IOError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '.'
