I've added
AddType application/x-yumhdr .hdr
to httpd.conf.
Now lynx lets me get the file ok but I still get the following error
when I run # yum check-update
-----------------------------------------------------------
Unable to find pid
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 - Base
Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - Updates
Finding updated packages
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 30, in ?

File "/usr/share/yum/yummain.py", line 249, in main
(uplist, newlist, nulist) =
clientStuff.getupdatedhdrlist(HeaderInfo, rpmDBInfo)
File "/usr/share/yum/clientStuff.py", line 478, in getupdatedhdrlist
newlist.remove((name, hdr_best_arch))
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
--------------------------------------------------------
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
