yum.conf and other yum files are even older.
The /var/cache/yum files seem to be consistent with an update yesterday.
I have made no changes myself to these files or to yum.conf. So something
went
bad. I'd rather like to get it working again.
It's working here now, but I saw this last night. Turned out the server
where the mirror lists are kept was down for maintenance.
Not a very informative way to fail, but I don't think it's your fault.
BTW, I'm seeing your message in a digest, but it's about 24 hours behind
when you sent it.
Yeah, servers went down at just about the time I tried. I tried several
times and then sent a question to the list. And it seems they stayed
down a LOOOOOONG time. I'd not caught any notice they were going to go
down. Ah well.
