Did the Red Hat guys break yum in FC5 because of the release of FC6 or is it just me?

I'm getting the following output from a yum update:

Code:
Loading "installonlyn" plugin

Setting up Update Process

Setting up repositories

updates                                                              [1/4]

Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: updates

Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: updates

I will be moving over to FC6 soon, but I might not be finished with FC5 yet!?

Anyone else have this problem?

(on an unrelated note - posting this from Firefox 2.0 - absolutely awesome!!)

Hi,

The DNS of fedora.redhat.com has been changed as they are switching it over.

i have the same problem

Code:
[root@localhost /]# yum update

Loading "installonlyn" plugin

Setting up Update Process

Setting up repositories

livna                                                                [1/7]

flash                                                                [2/7]

core                                                                 [3/7]

Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core

Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core

will this problem fix itself in time ifso how long could it take

try this:-

make sure the correct repo(s) are enabled

then as root

Code:
yum clean all

yum clean metadata

does that help ?

Erm, well I've gone to FC6 anyway now :P

If I had a working copy of FC5 installed somewhere, I'd test it out, but alas, I'd have to install it again...
