Of the thousand answers found on Google that > didn't work, that wasn't mentioned once. What happens is that yum caches the mirror addresses, and uses the cached addresses, rather than look them up every bloody time. Clearing all, including the cache, will force it to look Out There again.

It should work with any distribution that uses yum.
