I also set up a local repo, using a DVD ISO as the repo. I can install
from it over NFS, and did a fresh installation. I have the DVD image's
contents mounded as a loopback device, and available as a repo over
FTP. I get the same error when trying to install emacs. I do not get
similar errors from extras or my local updates mirror.

I then commented out my core repo and commented in the original
mirrorlist line. Same error.

I was able to install by copying the necessary files onto the test
machine.

I then created a new set of repodata outside the DVD image. This did
not solve the problem.
