That's my stablemirror plugin, not updated for FC6, probably not really
needed either, what with the changes to the mirrorlist.  Edit its
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/stablemirror.conf file to disable it.

And Yumex will not start,how do I debug as to why it's not.

Might the the same issue.

Ran vim on the above,Yum ran part of the way then came up with this:-

Not sure what you mean by "ran vim", but apparantly stablemirror is not
loading anymore.

Now it says that the fastestmirror plugin is not working.  It is part of
yum-fastestmirror, part of yum.  Possibly it wasn't upgraded, or has some
other problem.  It isn't necessary.  You can disable it the same way.

Yes I meant to say I used vim to disable stablemirror.py
Now yum comes up with more errors and diabled plugins
