well, it is an updated build-1.91 system, that is, the installed
versions of yum/python/rpm are:

yum-2.0.7-1.1
python-2.3.3-3
rpm-4.3.1-0.3sparc3
rpm-python-4.3.1-0.3sparc3

If I change yum.conf [base] from

baseurl=ftp://auroralinux.org/pub/aurora/build-1.91/$basearch/os/Fedora/RPMS/

to (local machine having an updated yum repository)

baseurl=ftp://pentium3/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/sparc/os/Fedora/RPMS

I get this:

[root@sparky root]# yum update
 
Unable to find pid
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Fedora Core 1.91 - sparc - Base

    (uplist, newlist, nulist) = clientStuff.getupdatedhdrlist(HeaderInfo, rpmDBInfo)
  File "/usr/share/yum/clientStuff.py", line 447, in getupdatedhdrlist
    rpmarchs = bestversion(rpmnevral, name)
  File "/usr/share/yum/clientStuff.py", line 495, in bestversion
    currentarch = archs[0]

[root@sparky root]#

Any ideas?

Cheers,
