This is very suspicious as python shouldn't be generating these messages ...
but can you try this patch (added upstream, the file is /usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py):

I applied the patch manually because I get a "malformed" error. The error message still comes up. What locale are you running in? /etc/sysconfig/i18n says LANG="de_DE.utf8" I don't know what's changed in the meanwhile, but I could successfully remove the kernel now. yum-3.2.17-1.fc9 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 9 yum-3.2.17-1.fc9 has been pushed to the Fedora 9 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update yum'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F9/FEDORA-2008-6301 I was able to siccesfully install and remove kernel-xen with new yum-3.2.17-1.fc9: # LANG="de_DE.utf8" yum remove kernel-xen According the comment #5 you do not have this problem now right?
