What OS/version are you on ? I assume it's one that uses yum. I don't
understand why it prints the line 'Not suitable: false value' - it also
does that on my Fedora machine _after_ running the yumhelper (which
exits with status 0).

There's also some confusion in my head (and the code) as to what the
@property_hash in a provider refers to. In particular, in the query
method in the rpm provider, @property_hash should refer to the
properties prefilled by the 'instances' method of the rpm provider;
instead these seem to be empty. There's something funky going on between
a provider and its parent .. not sure what though.
