Comment 1 Ryan Mauger 2008-09-11 12:05:31 UTC 
Resolved this problem by removing yum-skip-broken.
Comment 2 seth vidal 2008-09-11 12:24:56 UTC 
I'm going to close this as not a bug but we have made a change to the spec file so that this plugin cannot be installed with a version of yum that includes the skip-broken functionality.

thanks
