Re: yum hosed

Did you by chance install anything from Ximian?  After I installed Ximian's Connector and their version of Evolution, I came across the same issue.  Do a rpm -qa *krb* and see if you have a downrev of krb5-libs, notably v1.2.7-14. 

To get past the issue I remove it (krb5-libs-1.3.1-6 is installed as well), do any yum/up2date/rug work and then install it again to get Connector and Evolution to work.  It's a bit of a hassle, but I've learned to work around it.

This is consistent with the Bugzilla stuff, for which there is no 
listed fix. How can I rebuild/restore yum?
