Description of problem: I did a sudo yum update --skip-broken, and when yum started downloading filelists, the wlan connection dropped. After yum tried all mirrors, I got the backtrace: [...] Trying other mirror. Error: failure: repodata/234f0847beb2f19dffa8e73124c51dfec0bfc59028d8a35a77c313d1ab978ca1-filelists.sqlite.bz2 from updates-testing: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
