Whenever I run yum it goes away for a long time, sucks up resources, and tehn dies horribly. Below are more details:
What works:
yum clean all
What fails:
yum install <package>
yum install -C <package>
yum check-update
yum search <package>
yumex fails while it is trying to "populate package sack for development"
Installed:
yum-2.5.1-2
yumex-0.99.3-1.0.fc5
yum-utils-0.3.1-1.fc5
rpm-build-4.4.2-15
rpm-devel-4.4.2-15
rpm-libs-4.4.2-15
