I'm following the instructions here:
http://wiki.contribs.org/SqueezeBoxServer
for stable release
......Which says to install the package named squeezeboxserver.
In the bug report you use strace commands which refer to a package named squeezebox. Charlie did ask for that, but he also said to change the name if you used a different yum install "differentpackage" command.
I think you should re-open the bug report and re-submit the correct diagnostic information that Charlie asked for, but using the correct command appropriate for what you are trying to do.
ie you should have done
strace -f -s500 -o/tmp/yi.strace yum install -y squeezeboxserver
