one of the mirrors you are hitting has bad repodata, or you have 
misconfigured a baseurl / mirrorlist line. I wont be surprised if one of 
the machines is actually returning a 404 for the primary.xml in one of 
the repos.

run yum with -d7 and you should be able to work out which one that is 
and against what repo.
