Thanks but I've already been chatting with the author who is stumped at
this point - so I'm just going to give up.

He said he has found cases where automirror does not work and so he uses
polipo in those cases - so that is where I am off to now :-0

I have it working but there is this matter of yum choosing different
mirrors ...
