[CentOS] Problem with cr repo.

[Marek Blaha]

I can achieve the same error by
removing /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_hostname
and creating the directory in the same location instead.
So solution can be just removing this directory (or just renaming it):

# mv /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_
hostname
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_hostname.backup

# yum update python-urllib3
