If it were me, I would download the latest yum+dependencies and install them via rpm before trying to debug an old yum.
Good suggestion. Upgraded yum, sqlite, and python. Also added enough swap space via a swapfile to let yum do what it wants. Now it just eats memory until it hits a 4GB wall and then dies.
Version info follows.
[root@hostess ~]# rpm -q yum yum-2.4.3-4.el4.centos [root@hostess ~]# rpm -q sqlite sqlite-3.3.6-2 [root@hostess ~]# rpm -q python python-2.3.4-14.4
