Hi Paul,
Strange as it seems, I can reproduce that error ("'module' object has
no attribute 'error'" and the rest of it) when any of the following
isn't installed:
e2fsprogs-1.34-1.i386.rpm
openssl-0.9.7a-23.i686.rpm
krb5-libs-1.3.1-6.i386.rpm
Presuming you have the python from FC1, I'm guessing that installing
all of the above will get yum going again.
The actual library that isn't found occurs earlier in the strace; I
was looking for SOCKS libraries too :-).
Regards,
