Hi all

I have made some tests on a package with more than 3GB.
The rpm size is ok, and the repodata as well.

The problem is when I try to install using yum.
The package is not downloaded, because yum "sees" a negative size.

Then urlgrabber complains like this:
ftp://user:passwd@server-teste.com/package/package.noarch.rpm: [Errno 14] 
Downloaded more than max size for 
ftp://user:passwd@server-teste.com/package/package.noarch.rpm:    0 > 
-1286380563


The package size is 3044372847, according to  "rpm -qip".

Any idea where would be the problem ??
I am testing in a RHEL6 machine.
