HTTP error 416 with google-chrome and virtualbox repos

[Andre Costa]

Hi,

anyone else also experiencing HTTP error 416 with 'google-chrome' and
'virtualbox' repos? Here on my x86_64 F12 yum is choking:

yum info kernel
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/stable/x86_64/repodata/primary.xml.gz: [Errno
14] HTTP Error 416 :
http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/stable/x86_64/repodata/primary.xml.gz
Trying other mirror.
Error: failure: repodata/primary.xml.gz from google-chrome: [Errno 256] No
more mirrors to try.

yum --disablerepo=google-chrome info kernel

Trying other mirror.
Error: failure: repodata/primary.xml.gz from virtualbox: [Errno 256] No more

Weird thing is that PackageKit is working just fine, no workarounds needed.
Grabbing
http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/stable/x86_64/repodata/primary.xml.gz with
wget also works, and the file seems to be ok AFAICT.

Is it yum's fault? Repos' fault? Both?

yum version is 3.2.27-2
