rpm -q rpm-python python I suspect you have an old or damaged rpm-python Downgrading to yum-3.2.26-4.fc13.noarch (i.e. fc14 → fc13) fixed things for me. 3.2.26-4.fc13 and 3.2.26-4.fc14 are, for yum, code identical. Now - I'm not sure which version of python might be in rawhide as opposed to fc13 but there is no change in yum, at all. But this is the one thing I did to make it work again, really. Because I couldn't use yum I downloaded the fc13 rpm from koji and installed it with rpm -Uvh --force. Since then I have also downgraded the rest of the fc14 packages I had. But the one thing that made yum work again was downgrading that single package. if you can recreate this by reinstalling the fc14 pkg I'd be interested to hear - but there shouldn't be anything in the yum pkg which changes. I guess rpm changed the error it throws, so I added this upstream:
