How reproducible: Every time. At least until I get tired of it and reinstall. Steps to Reproduce: 1. run "yum <command>", such as "yum update" or "yum --version" 2. Watch the stack trace 3. Cry Actual results: Loss of hair Expected results: Beautifying of computer Additional info: Well, Initial install of Fedora Core 6 test 2 resulted in Video being all whacky (defined as : boot screen image was wayyyy too compressed for this non-widescreen monitor, then X-Windows at the right resoltion (manually set) had a black square on the top left, so I did a yum update, and that was fixed. Only thing: Now yum is broken.
Fixed in 2.9.5-4. You can fix it by turning off plugins in /etc/yum.conf and upgrading.
