Comment 1 the.hw.group 2009-06-19 20:01:26 UTC 
Identified package in question causing this:

yum-plugin-tmprepo-1.1.22-1.fc11.noarch


when this package is installed yum goes literally "out of whack".

I Identified this package as the cause by uninstalling (rpm -e) each yum - related rpm at a time.

Please look into this. Hope this helps!
