kiwi build failure Can't provide file from repository 'update'

Posted on 04:16 by Unknown
Our Kiwi builds were failing inconsistently with the below error
Failed to provide Package users-1-1.x86_64. Do you want to retry retrieval? 
Can't provide file 
'./rpm/x86_64/users-1-1.x86_64.rpm' from repository 'update'

Though the message was clearly suggesting issue with rpm download from local Suse repository. But manually we were able to download it without any issues. Even we suspected something fishy with zypper cache.

Finally from the post
https://groups.google.com/group/kiwi-images/tree/browse_frm/month/2012-09/03256b31dffdacfc?rnum=151&_done=/group/kiwi-images/browse_frm/month/2012-09?&pli=1
we got to know that, we need to clean following folders in our build machine
rm -rf /var/cache/kiwi/packages/ 
rm -rf /var/cache/kiwi/zypper 

Now our builds are consistently passing.
