I am no longer able to use up2date due to the subject error. I have set up up2date to use mirror sites. I have searched the mailing list archive without finding a solution. I have tried removing the files in the /var/spool/up2date directory as recommended in the message referenced below. This did not help. I still get the same error.

I am running Fedora Core 1 with all current updates except coreutils and the kernel. The kernel is at 2.4.22-1.2166.nptl.
Does anyone have a potential solution or a starting place for resolution? I have appended the output generated when trying to run up2date. Please help, I'm stuck.
