[Yum] Updated to Python 2.4 and Yum 2.4.0, Fedora Core 3, get "No module named urlgrabber"

[keithchristian at yahoo.com (Keith Christian)]

Hi Folks,

Running a Fedora Core 3 system and wanted to update Yum to 2.4.0.  After
several downloads, I arrived at finally being able to update Yum.

However, Yum now throws an error even after I've installed the requested
software (Python 2.4 from the Python 2.4 repository, etc.)

Any ideas?  I'm sure that there is simply a misconfiguration where Yum is
using the old Python 2.3 files instead of the just-install Python 2.4 files.

Thanks.

There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

   No module named urlgrabber

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:
