(but it's strange that the packages install fine 'sans > yum' ...) The only guess I have is memory-related errors. Have you tried running memtest86 on this machine? Running yum will exercise memory a good deal better than just rpm from the command line. If you've got some flaky ram in the system then it could cause this behavior. (and lots of other odd behavior) -sv
