[root@server ~]# config getprop yum eolversion
6.1

OK that definitely looks like it's going to work now:
But I will have to wait till afterhours before I can run it. Thanks for your help JP.
AGAIN , DO NOT !you definitively do not want to point to 6.1 when 6.6 is already out of date
the command i have asked you to issue should have make point to the last available 6.10. unless you have manually forced 6.6.
you are lucky there was no update of the package around there (and it somehow let you install what you seem to want) but you show on one side (/etc/centos-release) that your server is partly updated up to
6.10 (six, one zero) ( which is the last release), you had been forced somehow to
6.6 without remembering it, and now you try to install further more outdated software using
6.1 (six, one)
The zero is not to miss. that is one and zero for ten, not for dot one.
This is not a decimal number, this is a couple of version dot release, 6.10 (version six, release ten) is 9 releases ahead of 6.1 ( version six, release one)
so please again do
config delprop yum eolversion
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/initialize-default-databases
signal-event yum-modify
if you really want to use the oelversion property then do
config setprop yum eolversion 6.10
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/initialize-default-databases
signal-event yum-modify
