Try pointing yum to a > trusted mirror and re-run the clean all. *ALL* of the public mirrors are broken WRT these two files. Should I just point at the the *master* CentOS server?

Less likely reasons for this includes an evil > proxy, bad RAM, ... And it seems *I* am not the only one having problems with these two files, which suggests that bad RAM is unlikely. Esp. since it is specificly repeatable with exactly these two files and if I exclude these two file, yum is happy to do all of the other updates without problems (well, two other packages fail to update due to failed dependencies and are skipped via --skip-broken). It seems like there is a major snafu somewhere -- it is not just a random mirror here or there not being up-to-date, but more of a wholesale problem -- are we *sure* the metadata on the root server is not broken somehow? For now, I am just going to exclude device-mapper and net-snmp-libs until I hear that the metadata has been checked / fixed. > > /Peter > > > for both device-mapper and net-snmp-libs, for ALL of the mirrors.
