I believe the servers have just had a big maintenance job, which entailed 
rebuilding repo info (or something like that :-) ).  That might have affected 
you.  Meanwhile, you may need to 'yum clean all' and start afresh.  I had to, 
as it was using outdated metadata.

BTW, I'm curious about this dellsysidplugin2 - I have it on my netbook.  So 
far I haven't found out anything about it.
