I > would like to know *what* plugins actually *do*. At this point I don't think it even matters. You need to just get back to the simplest configuration possible. That means: * Remove ALL plugins * Disable ALL third party repo's. * Do a yum clean all * Revert to the default CentOS .repo files * Revert to default yum.conf file If it works in this configuration, you can start adding things back one at a time. Maybe you've already tried this, I don't know. It's been a long thread. :) Ray _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
