Indeed. Nothing is getting logged to messages.
Here are the last few system calls logged by running yum via strace

as follows...

On both the faulty system and a good one, yum appears to hunt for
various versions of python files.
Anyone with more knowledge that I have of system calls, is there a clue
in here?
Thanks
