Is this always reproducible?
I am suffering exactly the same mario
Forget, i got /etc/yum.conf modified somehow by an added line proxy=ftp://<user>@10.0.1.1:4480/. By commenting out the line, everything works fine. Thanks anyway mario
I installed about a week ago Fedora 7, but didn't have the time to look at it until now, except for a first time update that took a very long time... I got exactly the same problem (The attached equals exactly to the one i got). My scenario though, was different. I didn't do anything except adding stuff to the upper panel and creating a user for my wife, specifically, did not change any file manually. What i know that did happen is that i did not have a connection to the internet, while the software updater was trying to find software to update. Regardless of the problem, the reason i had connection problem is not because of fedora installation - it is because my internet supplier logged me out. I will try to relogin, now that the internet connection is up again, and see if the problem recur. I suggest to reopen the bug because i don't think i did something dangerous and the problem happened.
Now that the connection is up and running, i did a restart and still get the same problem. Perhaps the problem does not relate to an internet connection problem. What i do know is that now the updater does not work any longer - even the command 'yum update' doesn't work. Perhaps because of the internet connection problem, some file that directs to a url was changed - its inner urls delete ?
Found a good forum thread regarding this issue. I followed the answer of 'marko' and it fixed the yum execution. The question is whether the referred files were updated somehow, and if so by whom ? The fact is that the first update succeeded...
