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. It's possible that the above module doesn't match the current version of Python, which is: 2.4 (#1, Mar 22 2005, 21:42:42) [GCC 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)] If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please send this message to <yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. For comparison, this is the current one: The yum libraries do not seem to be available on your system for this version of python 2.4 (#1, Mar 22 2005, 21:42:42) [GCC 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)] Please make sure the package you used to install yum was built for your install of python. Sorry for the way to long lines, but I just preserved the original line breaks! Patch attached.
