hello,

i tried to download the latest updates of my FC4 with yum and failed...

error message is as follows:


Reading repository metadata in from local files
Resolving Dependencies
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
---> Downloading header for kernel-smp-devel to pack into transaction set.
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.13-1 100% |=========================| 4.2 MB    00:03
http://ftp.upjs.sk/pub/linux/fedora/linux/core/updates/4/i386/kernel-smp-devel-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4.i686.rpm: [Errno -1] Header is not complete.
Trying other mirror.

and this repeates for each mirror it tries...

what could cause this problem?

thanks a lot,
chris
