I have a problem involving yum failing to download package data from repositories. For example ------ /etc/yum.repos.d# yum install ipw3945-kmdl Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories dries [1/1] http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/dag/dries/fedora/fc5/i386/dries/RPMS/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 12] Timeout: <urlopen error timed out> Trying other mirror. ------- However I can ping ftp.freshrpms.net with no problem, and wget downloads the repomd.xml file almost instantaneously. This problem seems to occur with all the repositories listed in /etc/yum.repos.d. It only occurs at home; over my network at work (a university network) there is no problem. I have switched ISPs (for a different reason...) and the problem remained. As a posibly related aside, why does yum not respond to an interrupt signal sent using <ctrl>-c during its attempts to download these files?
