    Description

      One of our RPM packages has some UTF-8 characters in its description, leading to an exception ("Error: Could not prefetch package provider 'yum': invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII") in rpm.rb, causing no packages to be upgraded as the yumhelper.py invocation code raises that error.

      Priority=High because it breaks file

      { ensure => latest; }
