I'm seeing the following from some of my FC3 machines... on a

/etc/cron.daily/yum.cron:

//var/cache/yum/updates-released/repomd.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
This site is a Mirror for:
^
Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: updates-released
Error importing repomd.xml from updates-released: Error: could not parse file //var/cache/yum/updates-released/repomd.xml


Sounds like that repomd.xm1 file is corrupt.  Make sure the first line
in that file begins with <.  Or perhaps it is time to uninstall and
reinstall yum.  FWIW, I'm not getting that error on my FC3 machine
using yum-2.2.2.0-fc3.



You can 'yum clean all' to clear the cache.

I get the same error as you do on occasion.  Rerunning yum sometimes
clears it up.

Most likely because the next time you run yum, it picks a different mirror site which does not suffer from this problem. I too have seen it happen, and I'm also running yum-2.2.2.0-fc3 as well. Seems to be specific to certain mirror sites.
