This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an exception in the current release, please ask your support representative. I cannot reproduce the issue. Is it 100% reproducible? I installed bind and ran it as a caching name server listening on ::1. I modified /etc/resolv.conf to contain only one nameserver (nameserver ::1). Yum worked well with this setup. I also made bind listening on ::1 to fail resolving the queries, and added a functional IPv4 nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver ::1 nameserver 10.34.255.7 Yum waited until the first nameserver timed out and then used the IPv4 to perform the lookup, as expected. What is the output of `host -v rhel-x86_64-server-6` with the IPv6 nameserver enabled? rhel-x86_64-server-6 needs to be replaced with the corresponding host name from /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel-x86_64-server-6.repo file. Does curl download the package from the repository as expected when invoked manually via command line? The URL can be composed from the package rpm file name and the URL (baseurl) from /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel-x86_64-server-6.repo.
