yum doesn't have a problem. yum quietly looks at my properly configured yum
repo, and sees that there is nothing to update. Since the repo is a local repo,
it doesn't make any attempt to look up a mirror, and certainly doesn't tell me
that it cannot connect to any mirror.

As mentioned above, I'm not dealing w/ a remote mirror. I have a local repo and
yum is complaining on *that* repo that there are no more mirrors (which is
silly, of course).

Thanks for the suggestion! Still looking for more suggestions!

All the best,
