$PYTHONHOME ?

[David C. Hacker, DVM]

I am not sure which version of YDL you installed but one version (3.0  
if memory recalls) had a faulty yum package.  Try going to  
http://ayo.freshrpms.net/yellowdog/3.0/ppc/freshrpms/RPMS/yum-2.0.7 
-3.0.yd.fr.noarch.rpm and downloading the new version of yum.  To  
install open a root terminal and use rpm -ivh  
yum-2.0.7-3.0.yd.fr.noarch.rpm.
Good Luck,
David C. Hacker, DVM
