When I tried this I get:

root:/var/spool/localyum# yum update
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Fedora Core 1 -- Fedora US mirror
Server: Fedora Linux (stable) for Fedora Core 1 -- Fedora US mirror
Server: Fedora Core 1 updates -- Fedora US mirror
Server: Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (stable)
Server: Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (testing)
Server: local rpm repository
retrygrab() failed for:
  file://var/spool/localyum/headers/header.info
  Executing failover method
failover: out of servers to try
Error getting file file://var/spool/localyum/headers/header.info
[Errno 5] OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 
'/spool/localyum/headers/header.info'
root:/var/spool/localyum#

It seems to be expecting a headers subdirectory with some info in it but I am 
not sure how I can get the header.info created...
