this is kinda what i was saying off list, norberto. kill everything yum 
oriented, rm yum itself and reinstall. I'd take it a step further and 
delete the cache file entirely as well as the yum.log file. yum will 
replace all of that when it's up and running again. The yum.conf I'd 
hang on to only for the suppositories you have there.
the rebuilddb is cool to know, Bill, although I pray that I never need it.
