I was stung by this too.
Downgrading to yum-3.2.7-1 enables two things :
1) yum actually finds the packages you ask for
2) for some reason, yum obeys the repo selections in the kickstart file
It was convenient to have yum listen to the kickstart options (rather than
solely its own config), since it allows one to opt for caching of the ISO
creation packages separately from the main system, and also allows for
mirrorlists (which don't seem to be available on the command-line : please
tell me if I'm wrong).
Here's how I downgraded :
# curl -O
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/re...
i386/os/Packages/yum-3.2.7-1.fc8.noarch.rpm
# rpm -Uvh --oldpackage yum-3.2.7-1.fc8.noarch.rpm
