Hi Michael,

I have also been experiencing strange things happening after YUM updates.
Now all cron.daily jobs won't automatically execute. So I followed your
advice and manually attempted to perform "yum clean all" and "yum update".
When doing "yum clean all" I get the following:
[root at ns ~]# yum clean all
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Existing lock /var/run/yum.pid: another copy is running as pid 15882.
Another app is currently holding the yum lock; waiting for it to exit...
  The other application is: yum

    State  : Sleeping, pid: 15882 
Is there a way to correct this, as I am also getting the following message:
" There are updated Packages available for Packages that you already have
installed. Please upgrade the installed Packages to the latest available
versions." 

Thanks in advance,
Tom
