Sorry for the confusion. My statement "BTW, the message indicates Red
Hat Linux 3.2.3-56" should have been "BTW, the <u>error</u> message <u>below</u>
indicates Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-56". The version had not been mentioned
in any prior post.<br>

I agree, but my installation of yum is not working either (because of<br>
dependencies). I tried to install xephyr using rpm hoping for success,
<br>
wishful thinking I know. I guess my time would be better spent getting<br>
yum working. Right now when I execute yum I am greeted with the<br>
following: (BTW, the message indicates Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-56)</blockquote>

Sorry, I missed that because you keep creating new posts instead of
just continuing a single thread. Neither of the threads I read
indicated a version.<br>
<br>
Is that RHEL 3.2, or an old Redhat 3.2? Regardless, even RHEL 3.2 is
pretty old--that might give you some problems right there. But like I
said, I don't really know Redhat...<br>

yum error msg follows======================<br>
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
<br>
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:<br>
<br>
No module named yum<br>
<br>
Please install a package which provides this module, or<br>
verify that the module is installed correctly.<br>
<br>
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
<br>
current version of Python, which is:<br>
2.2.3 (#1, Sep 26 2006, 18:12:26)<br>
[GCC 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-56)]<br>
<br>
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please send this<br>
message to <<a href="mailto:yum@lists.linux.duke.edu" target="_blank"
onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
yum@lists.linux.duke.edu</a>>.<br>
========= end of yum error msg ========================</blockquote>

A quick search revealed this post[1], which looks similar to your
situation. The reply says to look at questions 7 and 10 from the YUM
faq[2]. (10 is how to search the yum mailing list).
