Before I do the "yum clean metadata", I wanted to give a chance to comment on the repolist output. I also wanted to check about what exactly "clean metadata" was going to do (any command with a clean option gives me pause (smile)). The "man yum" page makes it look safe and sensible, but I wanted to be sure that packages would still run if metadata in yum was gone.
