Yum problems

[wrenhunt]

I'm having problems getting yum to work on Mandrake 10.0. I have my /etc/yum.conf configured for a good Mandrake yum repository, but I receive Python (python version 2.3.3) errors for every Yum command I issue, for example:

 

[root@eeyore bose]# yum --version

2.0.1

 

# yum check-update

Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)

[root@eeyore bose]# python -V

Python 2.3.3

 

Is my yum hosed, python, or just me!? :-) Thanks!
