    Yeah, I have seen this before. A quick solution would be doing this
    inside the VPS:
    
    echo "ip_resolve=4" >> /etc/yum.conf
    
    That way Yum will only resolve IPv4 IPs.
    
That has solved the IPv6 issue but my VPS is still not updating.
I think Chris may be in touch! ;)

Kind regards
