Is yum updating?

[Mark Guertin]

I think the issue with ftp.yellowdoglinux.com has been resolved ..  
the main mirrors are hosted on ibiblio, and it seems they did some re- 
arranging that broke the yum configurations (due to a broken symlink  
to the yum repos).  As of late last week it was working again for me  
using the stock yum configuration . . .
