Okay lets check your python module path

start python

import sys
print sys.path

Crtrl-D to leave the python environment

The filesystem location /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/
should be in the output of print sys,path.

If it isn't that's the underlying problem.

If it is in the path start python and try to import yum

That should produce a useful python traceback, since the ImportError
exception producing the fancy error is at the beginning of the
/usr/bin/yum executable script

>>> import yum
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 31, in <module>

   import logging.config
ImportError: No module named config
>>>

I bare  import yum command will throw an exception and python will
produce a full traceback for us to look at.
