Actually, I got the same errors trying to connect to Dag's and
FreshRPM's sites, and they are http URL's. I think this is maybe the
newer 2.1 yum packages and those sites not compat with them yet or
something?
Both Dag's and FreshRPM's support the new yum repository format. I've
been using them successfully for a few days now.
That error seems to say that yum can't find the new repo metadata, so
either its a problem with the URL, or the repository doesnt support the
new repository format...right?!?
