Try running

  yum clean all

and then try it again.

However, you need to careful since none of your repositories appear
to be bona fida CentOS  repositories (just by looking at the name.)

A slightly different version of python may create havoc when trying to
upgrade other packages with python dependencies.

I don't have the trailing "_3.6" on mine which makes me suspicious that
it might *not* be the correct version - but I might be wrong about that.

Also, all my packages end with ".i386" instead of "_3.6".

that's interesting, because my Centos-Base.repo looks like the attached file.

btw, here's

 # yum check-update

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: download.srv.ro
 * updates: download.srv.ro
 * addons: download.srv.ro
 * extras: download.srv.ro
Skipping security plugin, no data

python.i386                              2.4.3-24.el5_3.6       updates        

so maybe the mirror is compromised .....

eventually, disabling fastestmirror  'fixed' the problem. is there an easy way to find out which mirror was used to install python from?

meanwhile, the fun continues as in the attached file :)
