You should start with this if you have that problem: yum clean metadata However ... this sounds like a different problem because ... yumgroups.xml never really changes, except when we release a new ISO. Are you rebuilding your metadata with createrepo ... if you are, are you using the -g option? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
