Yum is hosed on x86_64 system...

Hi Everyone,

I updated my x86_64 system this morning, and now when I go to run  
yum, I get the following:

[root@f7-64 ~]# yum clean all;yum update

Segmentation fault

I tried downloading the yum rpm from a update mirror and re- 
installing it, but this doesn't seem to have help.

Alot of other things are acting weird too [can't compile Nvidia driver].

I also installed the last 2.6.23.1 kernel that was listed in yum  
before this all started to go wrong.

If I can't get this fixed by next week, I'll just install a fresh  
copy of F8 on this system.

Any ideas?

Thanx!
