I tried doing yum update -d 5 -e 1 and it prints out a slew of repositories that its checking, but hangs up when updating metadata. I don't see any error messages before this. I get to : primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 442 kB 00:03 then nothing else happens except the cpu usage skyrockets. I think freshrpms is the only repo that I was using, so I tried yum update --disablerepo=freshrpms but It still got stuck on "updating metadata in local files', before showing the status bar with primary.xml.gz On a side note, I'm using the PlanetCCRMA distro, and apt-get update works as usual.
