Yum Update issue
« on: August 19, 2007, 06:36:40 AM »
Hi All

I have trolled through the forums and found various replies to an error I get when trying to update with yum. I have as the bug 1163 suggested altered the mirror list in yum.conf I am still getting this error as shown below. I am hoping someone can assist in stating the obvious to me as I am not quite sure what to change Thanking you in advance and apologies if my problems seems trivial.
