How useful is it really to have this version information here?
Since this is only triggered by an import error, how about a more specific
message? Well, and since not necessarily an error with the yum module
itself, a message which is also more general:
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
No module named libxml2mod
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
Optionally, if the version information is really helpful, add:
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is: 2.3.4 (#1, Feb 2 2005, 12:11:53)
[GCC 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)]
